... in asymptomatic hands. Twelve subjects were recruited to image the carpal tunnel using robot-assisted ultrasound. The median nerve and TCL were segmented from each image and three-dimensionally reconstructed using kinematic information from the robot. The TCL-median nerve distance, nerve cross-sectional area...

.... Our lab has previously presented acoustoelasticity as an alternative ultrasound-based method of measuring tendon stress and strain by reporting a relationship between ultrasonic echo intensity (B mode ultrasound image brightness) and mechanical behavior of tendon under pseudoelastic in vitro...

... phenomenon. PG is nonuniformly distributed throughout the depth direction, and its amount or distribution may change in the degenerated articular cartilage such as osteoarthritis. In this paper, we used a 50 MHz ultrasound system to study the depth-dependent strain of articular cartilage under the osmotic...

... the radiation force of focused amplitude-modulated ultrasound to exert a vibrating force directly, and remotely, on a bone. The vibration frequency is varied in the range of interest to induce resonances in the bone. The resulting bone motion is recorded and the resonance frequencies are determined. Experiments...
