A Novel Finite Element Model to Assess the Effect of Solid Stress Inside Tumors on Elastographic Normal Strains and Fluid Pressure
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Ultrasound elastography is a noninvasive imaging modality used to assess the mechanical behavior of tissues, including cancers. Analytical and finite element (FE) models are useful and effective tools to understand the ...
An Analytical Poroelastic Model of a Nonhomogeneous Medium Under Creep Compression for Ultrasound Poroelastography Applications—Part II
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An analytical theory for the unconfined creep behavior of a cylindrical inclusion (simulating a soft tissue tumor) embedded in a cylindrical background sample (simulating normal tissue) is presented and analyzed in this ...

An Analytical Model of Tumors With Higher Permeability Than Surrounding Tissues for Ultrasound Elastography Imaging
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Cancerous tissues are known to possess different poroelastic properties with respect to normal tissues. Interstitial permeability is one of these properties, and it has been shown to be of diagnostic relevance for the ...
