Systems and methods are provided for analyzing a biomechanical property of a medium using stimulated Brillouin scattering microscopy. The method can include a first step of applying a probe beam and pulsed pump beam to a target section of the medium, wherein the pump beam interacts with the probe beam to generate at least one acoustic wave in the medium and at least one Brillouin signal is produced as a result of the generated acoustic wave. The method can also include a second step of receiving the produced Brillouin signal and a third step of determining, using a processor and the Brillouin signal, information associated with at least one biomechanical property of the target section.
