Methods, systems and computer readable media for applying multi-push acoustic radiation force to samples and monitoring a response to quantify mechanical properties of samples

摘要

A method for evaluating mechanical properties of a sample includes applying a plurality of pulses of acoustic energy to a sample to apply a mechanical force to the sample and induce a non-steady-state displacement in the sample. The method further includes monitoring a response of the sample caused by the application of the mechanical force. The method further includes determining a quantitative value for a mechanical property of the sample based on the response.

1. A method for determining a quantitative value for a mechanical property of a sample, the method comprising:
applying a plurality of pulses of acoustic energy to a sample to apply a mechanical force to the sample and induce a non-steady-state displacement in the sample; monitoring a response of the sample caused by the application of the mechanical force; and determining a quantitative value for a mechanical property of the sample based on the response.
