Finite element analysis of shear wave velocity influenced by force in muscle

doi:10.3969/j.issn.2095-4344.0319

Abstract

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Force distribution in muscle is still a hotspot. The in vitro experiments show that the Young’s modulus of human muscle changes obviously under the influence of external force. However, it is difficult to detect force distribution in vivo. Shear wave elastography is a promising non-invasive imaging diagnostic method, which has been introduced into the study on muscle force distribution.
OBJECTIVE: To testify the relationship between shear wave velocity and stress by establishing the hyperelasticity finite element model for muscles, so as to provide a theoretical basis for the application of shear wave elastic imaging to detect the force distribution in muscle.
METHODS: The hyperelasticity finite element model was established based on in vitro experimental data. The shear wave speeds in muscle tissues under tension were studied by applying different statistic loads in axial direction.
RESULTS AND CONCLOSION: The results showed that the shear wave speeds increased from 6.1 m/s to 13.1 m/s as the load increased. The speed was linearly related to the load. Therefore, shear wave elastography can measure the force distribution in muscle by measuring shear wave speeds.
