Summary of the differences between F-CUSE/M-CUSE and SSI and ARFI shear wave imaging

Number of push beams per acquisition Push beam distribution Push beam order Data acquisition Push beam area recovered push-detect recovered from one push-detect Number of shear waves per acquisition Potential Frame
F-CUSE Multiple Simultaneously along lateral direction Simultaneous Single push-detect Yes Multiple 40 Hz

M-CUSE Multiple Sequentially along lateral direction Arbitrary Single push-detect Yes Multiple 40 Hz

SSI Multiple Sequentially along axial direction Shallow to deep or opposite Multiple push-detect No Single < 20 Hz

ARFI shear wave imaging Single N/A N/A Multiple push-detect No Single < 20 Hz
