Abstract
We report the problem of estimating
the internal displacement field of an object which is being
subjected to a deformation,
from B-mode ultrasound images before and after compression.
For the estimation of the internal displacement field we
utilizes particular speckle information to enhance
the quality of the motion estimation.
We present numerical results based on simulated data in order to
demonstrate the usefulness of our approach, in particular when
applied for quantitative elastography.
