Linear and Nonlinear Elastic Modulus Imaging: An Application to Breast Cancer Diagnosis

We reconstruct the in vivo spatial distribution of linear and nonlinear elastic parameters in ten patients with benign (five) and malignant (five) tumors. The mechanical behavior of breast tissue is represented by a modified Veronda–Westmann model with one linear and one nonlinear elastic parameter....
