Introduction to ultrasound elastography.
Journal of ultrasonography, 2016 For centuries tissue palpation has been an important diagnostic tool. During palpation, tumors are felt as tissues harder than the surrounding tissues. The significance of palpation is related to the relationship between mechanical properties of different tissue lesions.

Ultrasound elastography for musculoskeletal applications [PDF]
The British Journal of Radiology, 2012 Ultrasound elastography (EUS) is a method to assess the mechanical properties of tissue, by applying stress and detecting tissue displacement using ultrasound. There are several EUS techniques used in clinical practice; strain (compression) EUS is the most common technique that allows real-time visualisation of the elastographic map on the screen ...

3D elastography using freehand ultrasound [PDF]
Ultrasound in Medicine & Biology, 2004 We present an elastography system using freehand 3D ultrasound. A review is provided of the standard elastography methods that have been adapted for this purpose. The scanning protocol is simple and promising results are presented of 3D strain images from freehand scans.
