3D estimation of soft biological tissue deformation from radio-frequency ultrasound volume acquisitions

The current research and development of 2D (matrix-shaped) transducer arrays to acquire 3D ultrasound data sets provides new insights into medical ultrasound applications and in particular into elastography. Until very recently, tissue strain estimation techniques commonly used in elastography were...
