Ultrasonic methods for measurement of small motion and deformation of biological tissues for assessment of viscoelasticity /

In this monograph, an accurate ultrasonic method for measurement of small motion and deformation of biological tissue is described. In the displacement estimation based on the phase change of echoes, the displacement estimates are biased when the center frequency of the RF echo changes. Such an appa...
