👉 Elastometry is a technique used in medical imaging to measure the elasticity of tissues, such as muscles and tendons, by measuring changes in their shape or size. It is commonly used in orthopedic procedures, such as x-rays or CT scans, to assess the strength and flexibility of bones, ligaments, and tendons. Elastometry can also be used in imaging systems like MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) to measure the mechanical properties of tissues, which is crucial for
