Zusammenfassung

Purpose: The new ARFI technology (Siemens, ACUSON S3000), and a myometry device, the MyotonPro, (MyotonPro AS, London) were tested on agarose phantoms, for assessing quantitative stiffness on homogenous and mixed modells. The ARFI technology provides a qualitative and quantitative assessment of tissue stiffness using acoustically shock pulses. The resulting tissue displacement is analysed as a color-coded elastography profile. The MyotonPro measurement is an integrated measurement of tissue characteristics. It induces an external mechanical impulse. The resulting damped oscillation is recorded by an acceleromete…
