New ultrasound method could lead to easier disease diagnosis
by University of Sheffield Principle of acoustoelastic imaging of stresses.(A) Schematic showing that the principal stresses σ1 and σ3 change the speed of the vertically polarized shear waves. Here, an isotropic material subject to moderate stress is taken as an example. (B) An ultrasonic transducer with the axial direction (z) aligned with the principal direction x3 is used to...
