Abstract
Some studies suggested a correlation between tissue elasticity and diseases, such as Adhesive Capsulitis (AC) of the shoulder. One category of method to measure elasticity is by utilizing Doppler imaging. This paper discusses color Doppler shear wave elastography methods and demonstrated an experiment with biological tissue mimicking phantom. A simulation with binary pattern color Doppler shear wave elastography shows that wavelength of a shear wave with suggested magnitude is equal to four multiple of pitch strip in a color flow image. However, the larger amplitude changes the duty ratio and frequency of the pattern. An experiment with biological tissue mimicking Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) phantoms has shown that the binary pattern color Doppler method has successfully recovered shear wave velocity map and calculate the elasticity.Clinical Relevance-The result of experiments presents a possibility of using the method for quantitatively access the stage of tissue stiffness related disease.
