Excitation System for Magnetic Resonance Elastography Using Micro MRI

Excitation System for Magnetic Resonance Elastography Using Micro MRI

Magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) is a nondestructive method for measuring the hardness and softness of living tissue by means of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) coupled with mechanical excitation of the subject. The shear modulus of a tissue is related to the velocity of transverse waves propa...
