A-mode ultrasound signals from TE cartilage, showing a time shift to the left of internal acoustic reflections due to inhomogeneities in the tissue at 100 μm compression (shorter times, red trace), from zero compression (blue trace). Note expected negligible displacement at the transducer (left). Regions A to D are ROIs encompassing the reflections and used in regional strain computations (Table 5).
