Varghese, PhD, Tomy

My current research deals with the development of Elastography. Elastography is rapidly developing into a new ultrasonic imaging modality, capable of producing images of internal strain or tissue elasticity. Elastography is a method for imaging the elastic properties of compliant tissues, producing gray scale strain images referred to as elastograms. You can think of Elastography …
