Abstract: This paper describes the propagation of shear waves in a Holzapfel–Gasser–Ogden (HGO) material and investigates the potential of magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) for estimating parameters of the HGO material model ...

Abstract: Magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) is an imaging modality with which mechanical properties can be noninvasively measured in living tissue. Magnetic resonance elastography relies on the fact that the elastic shear modulus ...

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 ...

Abstract: Strain energy and kinetic energy in the human brain were estimated by magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) during harmonic excitation of the head, and compared to characterize the effect of loading direction and frequency ...

Abstract: In traumatic brain injury (TBI), membranes such as the dura mater, arachnoid mater, and pia mater play a vital role in transmitting motion from the skull to brain tissue. Magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) is an imaging ...
