(a) Conceptual idealisation of the transluminal elastography approach. The transluminal probe, composed for at least one rotational oscillator and a cylindrical array of sensors, is inserted through the lumen. (b) Cross section schematic view of the transluminal approach. Shear waves propagates radially from the rotational oscillator disk emitter. Particles vibrate in an arc-shaped manner perpendicular to the propagation direction. Echoes are generated as the shear waves interact with the area of altered viscoelastic properties.
