Journal ArticleDOI
Acoustic radiation force impulse imaging: in vivo demonstration of clinical feasibility.
TL;DR: Experimental results are presented demonstrating that displacements on the order of 10 microm can be generated and detected in soft tissues in vivo using a single transducer on a modified diagnostic US scanner and support the clinical feasibility of a radiation force-based remote palpation imaging system.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the feasibility of remote palpation using acoustic radiation force.
TL;DR: The feasibility ofRemote palpation is demonstrated experimentally using breast tissue phantoms with spherical lesion inclusions, and in vitro liver samples and the results show promise for the clinical implementation of remote palpation.

TL;DR: The fundamental physics and the associated terminology underlying elasticity imaging technologies are described to ensure that the terminology and descriptions are broadly compatible across the WFUMB and EFSUMB sets of guidelines on elastography.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantifying hepatic shear modulus in vivo using acoustic radiation force.
TL;DR: Simulation and in vivo data to date demonstrate that this algorithm to quantify shear wave speed from radiation force-induced, ultrasonically-detected displacement data that is robust in the presence of poor displacement signal-to-noise ratio appears promising as a clinical tool for quantifying liver stiffness.
