Abstract
A lung ultrasound surface wave elastography (LUSWE) technique is developed for assessing interstitial lung disease (ILD). In LUSWE, a 0.1 second harmonic vibration is generated on the chest wall of a subject using a handheld vibrator. An ultrasound probe is aligned with the vibration indenter in the same intercostal region to measure the generated surface wave speed of the lung. A human subject is examined in a sitting position. The lung is...
