总结

Elisa E. Konofagou, Ph.D..

技术优势

Easy implementation into existing commercially available systemsDetect tissue displacement during the application of the acoustic forceNoninvasive methodIndependent of speed of soundCan be translated to clinical usePatent information:Patent Pending (WO/2014/113422)Tech Ventures Reference: IR CU13179

技术应用

Integration into current ultrasound scanners for early diagnosis and early treatment monitoring during thermal ultrasound treatment proceduresMeasurement of elastic properties of organs, which can be measured for both preclinical and clinical applicationsMapping of elasticity of organs - the variation of elasticity over the surface of an organ can be used to identify abnormalities in stiffnessAssessment of orthopedic tissues resulting from diseasesMaterial assessment or calibration such as architectural wall sound-proof performance evaluationOceanic instruments by sonar performance evaluation techniques
