Abstract
Shear wave phase velocity is estimated from measurements of shear wave motion obtained using ultrasound shear wave elastography or other suitable elastography techniques. Shear wave dispersion curves are generated using a combined generalized Stockwell transform and slant wave number-frequency analysis. A modified version of the S-transform is used to control the time-frequency resolution of a time-frequency decomposition of a signal.
