Magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) is a medical imaging technique that combines
magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with mechanical vibrations to generate maps of …

Objectives To investigate consistency in shear wave velocities (SWVs) on ultrasound
elastography using different machines, transducers and acquisition depths. Methods The …

Developing methods for the non-invasive characterization of the mechanics of
musculoskeletal tissues is an ongoing research focus in biomechanics. Often, these …

Background: Posterior and posteroinferior capsules in the shoulder joints of throwing
athletes have been reported to be thicker in throwing than nonthrowing shoulders, and this …

Objectives There are no established criteria for stiffness after fusionless surgery for
neuromuscular scoliosis (NMS). As a result, there is no consensus regarding the surgical …

Introduction Achilles tendon is the most frequently ruptured tendon, but its optimal treatment
is increasingly controversial. The mechanical properties of the healing tendon should be …

Shear wave elastography (SWE) is an ultrasound technique to obtain soft tissue mechanical
properties. The aim of this study was to establish the reliability of SWE in young children …

The goal of this study was to investigate the reliability and feasibility of shear wave
elastography by assessing the elasticity of the healthy skin of 40 volunteers. Young's moduli …

The biomechanical function of the intervertebral disc (IVD) is a critical indicator of tissue
health and pathology. The mechanical responses (displacements, strain) of the IVD to …

Degenerative muscle changes may be associated with changes in muscle mechanical
properties. Shear wave elastography (SWE) allows direct quantification of muscle shear …
