Abstract:Assessing corneal biomechanical properties may be important for the diagnosis of ocular diseases as the mechanical properties of the cornea change during disease development. Elastography is a technique to image the mechanical properties of tissues by applying a mechanical load to the tissue and measuring the resultant displacement using available imaging techniques like magnetic resonance or ultrasound imaging. The measured displacement is then translated to mechanical properties. Heartbeat optical coherence … Show more
