Quantifying hepatic shear modulus in vivo using acoustic radiation force. (2008, methodology): “This method has been successfully applied when ultrasound or magnetic resonance imaging has been used to track tissue displacements (Oliphant et al., 2001; Bercoff et al., 2004; Sandrin et al., 2002; Nightingale et al., 2003), but as Equation 3 indicates, second-order spatial and temporal derivative”
