An approach to viscoelastic characterization of dispersive media by inversion of a general wave propagation model

In the characterization of elastic properties of tissue using dynamic optical coherence elastography, shear/surface waves are propagated and tracked in order to estimate speed and Young’s modulus. However, for dispersive tissues, the displacement pulse is highly damped and distorted during propagati...
