Measurement of Soft Tissue Elasticity in Vivo (eBook, PDF)

Techniques and Applications

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

The product of 20 years of research, this book covers topics in soft tissue elasticity in vivo, from measurement techniques to clinical applications. It provides, for the first time, a single source that systematically introduces the various techniques for in vivo measurement of soft tissue elasticity in an effort to ease the difficulty between learning technical details and clinical applications of techniques. It also proposes two critical directions for the future of the field that would establish standardized and comparable protocols in clinical research and practice.
