Quantitative Assessment of Thin-Layer Tissue Viscoelastic Properties Using Ultrasonic Micro-Elastography With Lamb Wave Model.

Characterizing the viscoelastic properties of thin-layer tissues with micro-level thickness has long remained challenging. Recently, several micro-elastography techniques have been developed to improve the spatial resolution. However, most of these techniques have not considered the medium boundary conditions when evaluating the viscoelastic properties of thin-layer tissues such as arteries and co...
