机械成像（MI）是弹性成像的一个分支。MI不同于传统的超声和MR弹性成像，它使用应力数据而不是动态或静态应变数据来评估软组织的机械结构。MI与手动触诊非常相似，因为MI探针的尖端附有力传感器阵列，充当触诊手指。MI本质上是一种三维成像方式，因为在不同组织压缩水平下获得的表面应力模式是由组织的三维机械结构定义的。本文综述了MI的生物力学基础及其在乳腺癌筛查、良恶性病变的鉴别、前列腺状况的可视化和评估以及阴道壁弹性表征中的应用。
Mechanical Imaging (MI) is a branch of Elastography. MI differs from conventional ultrasonic and MR elastography in that it evaluates soft tissue mechanical structure using stress data rather than dynamic or static strain data. MI closely mimics manual palpation because the MI probe with a force sensor array attached to its tip acts as a palpating finger. MI is intrinsically a three-dimensional imaging modality because the surface stress patterns obtained at different levels of tissue compression are defined by three-dimensional mechanical structure of the tissue. This review presents the biomechanical basis of MI and its applications for breast cancer screening, and the differentiation of benign and malignant lesions, the visualization and evaluation of prostate conditions, and for the characterization of vaginal wall elasticity.
