Abstract
Ultrasound shear wave imaging has been successfully developed with wide clinical applications. Typically, the shear wave image format is the same as the corresponding B-mode so that the shear modulus distribution can be overlaid with the anatomy. However, in certain applications the B-mode cross-sectional view may not be ideal. In this study, we propose a system for shear modulus computed tomography. Such a system inherently can achieve higher spatial resolution and the imaging setup is more suitable for cell studies using 3D culture systems. © 2017 IEEE.
