The network of fasciae is an important part of the musculoskeletal system that is often
overlooked. Fascia mobility, especially along shear planes separating muscles, is critical for …

MR elastography (MRE), first described in 1995 and FDA-cleared in 2009, has emerged as
an important tool for noninvasively detecting and staging liver fibrosis in patients with known …

Objectives To evaluate the potential of MR elastography (MRE)–based shear strain mapping
to noninvasively predict the presence of microvascular invasion (MVI) in hepatocellular …

Cancer biomechanical properties, including high stiffness, solid stress, and interstitial
pressure, as well as altered micro-architecture, are drivers of tumorigenesis, invasiveness …

Meningiomas, the most prevalent primary benign intracranial tumors, often exhibit
complicated levels of adhesion to adjacent normal tissues, significantly influencing resection …

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Preoperative assessment of meningioma
consistency is beneficial for optimizing surgical strategy and prognosis of patients. We aim to …

Purpose Abnormal adherence at functional myofascial interfaces is hypothesized as an
important phenomenon in myofascial pain syndrome. This study aimed to investigate the …

Magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) of brain relies on inducing and measuring shear
waves in the brain. However, studies have shown vibration could induce changes in …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Preoperative assessment of meningioma consistency is
beneficial for optimizing surgical strategy and prognosis of patients. We aim to develop a …

Background Reports find that magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) and shear wave
elastography (SWE) can classify intracranial tumors according to stiffness. However …
