This method estimates tissue elasticity by analyzing the speed of shear waves captured by an ultrasonic Doppler transducer, and offers several advantages such as high reliability, low cost, and non-invasiveness. However, the propagation of sliding waves in diseased tissue generates reflected waves that can affect the accuracy of the results. To overcome this limitation, this study introduces a novel technique that employs a directional filter to eliminate reflected waves and increase the reliability of the elastography results.
