Abstract
The compliance of human tissue is determined by impinging a target area with acoustical energy over a range of frequencies. The target is dynamically sealed within a chamber and the pressure response produced in the chamber over the frequency range is measured. The characteristic of the frequency response is related directly to the compliance of the target.
