MODALITY INDEPENDENT ELASTOGRAPHY: INITIAL RESULTS WITH A MURINE LIVER FIBROSIS MODEL.

摘要

In recent work, we have been investigating a chemically-induced murine liver fibrosis model for validation work and towards the development of a small-animal elastography platform. In this work, we present results that correlate mechanical properties as measured by a novel mechanical testing gel-liver assay and our elastography method on the same animal.
