From: The effect of smoking on quantification of aortic stiffness by ultrasound time-harmonic elastography
Sagittal B-mode images of the abdominal aorta and corresponding elastograms. The top row shows a sagittal B-mode image of the abdominal aorta (A) and the shear wave speed map (measured SWS: 2.77 m/s) (B) of a healthy non-smoking volunteer. The bottom row shows the corresponding B-mode image (C) and SWS map (measured SWS: 3.03 m/s) (D) of an age-matched smoker.
