Figure 2. MRE Results. a) Magnitude image of the porcine globe imbedded in a bovine-gelatin substrate. b) Up-down sensitized wave image, showing the mode-conversion of 10-Hz longitudinal waves at the corneoscleral surface and propagation of the resulting shear waves inside the vitreous body. c) Shear stiffness map generated with a local frequency estimation algorithm, yielding an average stiffness of 10 Pa for the vitreous body.

متن کاملNon-invasive Measurement of Vitreous Humor Stiffness in the Mouse using MR Elastography
Introduction In vivo, non-invasive measurements of the stiffness (elastic modulus) of biological tissue can be performed with magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) [1]. Many studies have illustrated the versatility of MRE; stiffness estimates have been obtained from liver, muscle, breast, brain and heart [2-5]. Tissue health or disease is often indicated by its stiffness. In many cases tissue h...
