Abstract

Medical imaging Stiffness Applied loads Nonlinear dependence Optical coherence elastography Soft tissue Strain images Tissue stiffness Tissue
We demonstrate the modification of optical coherence elastography to advance from relative strain images to quantified tissue stiffness on the micro-scale. We highlight the nonlinear dependence of tissue stiffness on the applied load and consider how nonlinearity may help characterise soft tissues.
