- Shear wave (SW) elastography offers the potential to significantly improve the assessment of changes in the stiffness of soft tissues in the foot using a non-invasive technique. This paper, for the first time, provided a framework to interpret the physical meaning of SW elastography and demonstrated the usefulness of SW elastography in clinical research and clinical practice. The paper was also presented at the 1st International Conference of the Greek Society of Experimental Mechanics of Materials, 2018, where it received the best paper award.
