Clinical Feasibility of 3-D Acoustic Radiation Force Impulse (ARFI) Imaging for Targeted Prostate Biopsy Guidance.
Journal Article Ultrason Imaging · March 2025 We have developed a 3-D acoustic radiation force impulse (ARFI) prostate imaging system to identify regions suspicious for cancer and guide a targeted prostate biopsy in a single visit. The system uses a side-fire transrectal probe and an automated rotatio ... Full text Link to item CiteRe: Alec Zhu, Mary O. Strasser, Timothy D. McClure, et al.
