Analysis of Transient Shear Wave in Lossy Media.
Ultrasound in Medicine & Biology 2018 July
The propagation of shear waves from impulsive forces is an important topic in elastography. Observations of shear wave propagation can be obtained with numerous clinical imaging systems. Parameter estimations of the shear wave speed in tissues, and more generally the viscoelastic parameters of tissues, are based on some underlying models of shear wave propagation. The models typically include specific choices of the spatial and temporal shape of the impulsive force and the elastic or viscoelastic properties of the medium. In this work, we extend the analytical treatment of 2-D shear wave propagation in a biomaterial. The approach applies integral theorems relevant to the solution of the generalized Helmholtz equation, and does not depend on a specific rheological model of the tissue's viscoelastic properties. Estimators of attenuation and shear wave speed are derived from the analytical solutions, and these are applied to an elastic phantom, a viscoelastic phantom and in vivo liver using a clinical ultrasound scanner. In these samples, estimated shear wave group velocities ranged from 1.7 m/s in the liver to 2.5 m/s in the viscoelastic phantom, and these are lower-bounded by independent measurements of phase velocity.
