Background, Motivation and Objective Shear wave elastography with acoustic radiation force (ARF) or harmonic vibration (HV) has been applied in animals and humans to evaluate myocardial material properties. The anisotropic myocardial structure presents a unique challenge to wave propagation methods because the fiber direction changes through the wall thickness.
