“…However, the operator dependency and lack of standardization and reproducibility for HHUS are important limitations for its use. Automated whole breast ultrasonography (AWUS) has been proposed as a promising tool for overcoming disadvantages of HHUS [2][3][4][5] and has been developed during the last decades [6,7]. Recent advances in high-frequency broadband transducers, combined with volumetric technology, enables AWUS to compete with HHUS.…”

“…This problem can be reduced by using a phased array focused transducer to move the focal region electronically. The instrument generating radiation force could also be integrating into a single mechanism for automated 3D ultrasound scanning, as an extension of a system we have already developed (Shipley et al 2002(Shipley et al , 2005. Finally, in the present system, only one strain estimate was obtained for each pushing location.…”

“…Our long-term objective is to incorporate elasticity imaging within an automated 3D ultrasound breast imaging system (Shipley et al 2005), for eventual clinical use. The nature of this scanning system is such that, for practical reasons, radiation force would appear to be the method of choice for applying the load.…”

“…3(b) shows that for |γ − γ 0 | > 10°, the detection of the tube fails. However, limiting the range of the data points for the least-squares regression to |γ − γ 0 | < 10° shows good approximation of the measurement values by (2) with optimized values for d 0 and γ 0 .…”
