Abstract
The identification of preferred seed calculations used to guide the determination of displacement vectors in elasticity imaging may evaluate seeds using a combination of a measure of the similarity of the data of the seed in pre- and post-compression data and continuity of the data in a path in the neighborhood of the seed. This dual evaluation helps avoid downstream error propagation.
