Shear wave elastography is an ultrasound‐based technique that generates transverse mechanical waves within placental tissue and quantifies their propagation speed to infer local stiffness. By ...

Can you imagine sound travels in the same way as light does? A research team at City University of Hong Kong (CityU) discovered a new type of sound wave: the airborne sound wave vibrates transversely ...

Optical coherence elastography (OCE) integrates optical coherence tomography with controlled mechanical excitation to map tissue mechanical properties at micrometre resolution. By detecting minute ...

A research team has discovered a new type of sound wave: the airborne sound wave vibrates transversely and carries both spin and orbital angular momentum like light does. The findings shattered ...
