Quantitative Optical Coherence Elastography

Real-time, in vivo measurement of localized mechanical properties for biological tissue. 

We developed and validated a novel optical coherence elastography technology to achieve quantitative mechanical characterization of biological tissue. The miniature qOCE device can perform characterization on time dependent and spatial dependent tissue dynamics.

A wide range of mechanical properties (Young's modulus, creep function, relaxation function, etc) can be obtained using our device from biological tissue in vivo.
