Assessing mechanical properties of tissue phantoms with non-contact optical coherence elastography and Michelson interferometric vibrometry

Purpose: Elastography is an emerging method for detecting the pathological changes in tissue biomechanical properties caused by various diseases. In this study, we have compared two methods of noncontact optical elastography for quantifying Young’s modulus of tissue-mimicking agar phantoms of variou...
