Figure 4

Example of a case with two HIFU-lesion that appear to be well-separated on the different elastograms (a) ASE, (b) ASSE and (c) color-overlay of ASSE on ASE. Observe that the characteristic axial-shear strain pattern associated with each lesion (e.g. see ASSE in fig 2) is clearly identified in (c). Also, observe that only those pixels from ASSE that were of good quality (corresponding correlation coefficients >0.75) and greater than a threshold value (50% of peak value) are color-overlaid.
