Abstract: Hernia meshes significantly reduce the recurrence rates in hernia repair. It is known that they affect the abdominal wall postimplantation, yet the understanding of in vivo mechanics in the mesh placement area is lacking. ...

Abstract: Magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) has emerged as a sensitive imaging technique capable of providing a quantitative understanding of neural microstructural integrity. However, a reliable method for the quantification ...

Abstract: This paper describes a new method for estimating anisotropic mechanical properties of fibrous soft tissue by imaging shear waves induced by focused ultrasound (FUS) and analyzing their direction-dependent speeds. Fibrous ...
