Abstract

For diagnosis of fibrosis we developed an ultrasound elastography system. Which combines the advantages of magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) with ultrasound elastography (USE). Multi-frequency MRE has a high diagnostic power for the staging of low grades of fibrosis. USE has the potential to provide similar results in real-time and at low costs with a wide availability. We demonstrate the feasibility of time-harmonic multi-frequency USE at six volunteers and compare the resulting shear wave speed dispersion over seven frequencies with literature values from MRE © 2012 IEEE.
