Spring-damper equivalents of the fractional, poroelastic, and poroviscoelastic models for elastography

open access: yes, 2017
In MR elastography it is common to use an elastic model for the tissue's response in order to properly interpret the results. More complex models such as viscoelastic, fractional viscoelastic, poroelastic, or poroviscoelastic ones are also used.

Shear wave pulse compression for dynamic elastography using phase-sensitive optical coherence tomography [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Assessing the biomechanical properties of soft tissue provides clinically valuable information to supplement conventional structural imaging. In the previous studies, we introduced a dynamic elastography technique based on phase-sensitive optical ...

Shear Wave Elastography in Diagnosing Secondary Hyperparathyroidism [PDF]

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2019
This study evaluates the diagnostic value of two-dimensional shear wave elastography (2 D-SWE) technique in the evaluation of hyperplastic parathyroid glands in cases with secondary and tertiary hyperparathyroidism. A total of 59 patients (end-stage renal disease, under supplemental dialysis program) with visible parathyroid hyperplastic glands on ...

Diagnostic accuracy of shear wave elastography in evaluating renal fibrosis in children with chronic kidney disease: a comparative study with nuclear scan

open access: yesThe Egyptian Journal of Radiology and Nuclear Medicine, 2023
Background Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a significant health issue in pediatric patients due to fibrosis progression. Shear wave elastography (SWE) is a noninvasive technique used to assess fibrosis in CKD, but its efficacy needs to be better ...

Non-invasive Evaluation of Aortic Stiffness Dependence with Aortic Blood Pressure and Internal Radius by Shear Wave Elastography and Ultrafast Imaging [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Elastic properties of arteries have long been recognized as playing a major role in the cardiovascular system. However, non-invasive in vivo assessment of local arterial stiffness remains challenging and imprecise as current techniques rely on indirect ...

Liver Stiffness Directs Intrahepatic Cholesterol Accumulation Through YAP/TAZ in Metabolic Dysfunction‐Associated Steatotic Liver Disease

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Liver stiffness promotes intrahepatic cholesterol accumulation by repressing LXRα through YAP/TAZ activation. Stiff matrices impair cholesterol efflux in hepatocytes, while YAP/TAZ deletion restores LXRα activity and prevents cholesterol‐induced fibrosis.

Elastic waves in a soft electrically conducting solid in a strong magnetic field [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Shear wave motion of a soft, electrically-conducting solid in the presence of a strong magnetic field excites eddy currents in the solid. These, in turn, give rise to Lorentz forces that resist the wave motion. We derive a mathematical model
