介绍了超声技术对生物软组织结构和功能的研究。组织力学性质的微观变化引起的回声波形的变化可以揭示体内的疾病机制。在更大的尺度上，弹性成像描述了软组织的宏观力学特性。我们总结了使用这两种声学成像技术研究肾脏组织疾病引起的变化的方法和初步结果。
Ultrasonic techniques are presented for the study of soft biological tissue structure and function. Changes in echo waveforms caused by microscopic variations in the mechanical properties of tissue can reveal disease mechanism, in vivo. On a larger scale, elasticity imaging describes the macroscopic mechanical properties of soft tissues. We summarize the approach and present preliminary results for studying disease-induced changes in renal tissue using these two acoustic imaging techniques.
