* Identification process based on shear wave propagation within a phantom using finite element modelling and magnetic resonance elastography.
- Magnetic resonance elastography (MRE), based on shear wave propagation generated by a specific driver, is a non-invasive exam performed in clinical practice to improve the liver diagnosis. The purpose was to develop a finite element (FE) identification method for the mechanical characterisation of phantom mimicking soft tissues investigated with MRE technique. Thus, a 3D FE phantom model, composed of the realistic MRE liver boundary conditions, was developed to simulate the shear wave propagation with the software ABAQUS. The assumptions of homogeneity and elasticity were applied to the FE phantom model. Different ranges of mesh size, density and Poisson's ratio were tested in order to develop the most representative FE phantom model. The simulated wave displacement was visualised with a dynamic implicit analysis. Subsequently, an identification process was performed with a cost function and an optimisation loop provided the optimal elastic properties of the phantom. The present identification process was validated on a phantom model, and the perspective will be to apply this method on abdominal tissues for the set-up of new clinical MRE protocols that could be applied for the follow-up of the effects of treatments.

bore holes"; "ballet is beautiful but what use is it?")
3. (7) function, office, part, role -- (the actions and activities assigned to or required or
expected of a person or group; "the function of a teacher"; "the government must do its part"; "play
its role")
4. function -- (a relation such that one thing is dependent on another; "height is a function of
age"; "price is a function of supply and demand")
5. function -- (a formal or official social gathering or ceremony; "it was a black-tie function")
6. affair, occasion, social occasion, function, social function -- (a vaguely specified social
event; "the party was quite an affair"; "an occasion arranged to honor the president"; "a seemingly
endless round of social functions")
