In the ultrasound and elasticity imaging laboratory, we focus on the development, testing and analysis of novel ultrasound imaging techniques to improve diagnostics, prognostics and treatment of a number of diseases, which range from cancer to lymphedema, long bones and spine. Our work has contributed to the development of “ultrasound elastography”, an imaging modality that is now implemented in many ultrasound scanners used worldwide, and pioneered novel poroelasticity imaging techniques to measure tissue mechanical properties of fluid-filled tissues.
