NON-INVASIVE ASSESSMENT OF LIVER FAT BY CRAWLING WAVE DISPERSION |
摘要 |
Using a modified ultrasound device, crawling waves are applied to the liver over a range of shear wave frequencies. Dispersion measurements are obtained that reflect tissue viscosity and these correlate with the degree of steatosis. A device for the process has an actuator on either side of the ultrasound transducer to apply shear waves, which interfere to produce the crawling waves. |
