[Reconstruction of elastic properties of soft biological tissues from data about it's deformation under dynamic load].

The present work continues theoretical investigations on developing new noninvasive methods for diagnostics of tissue pathologies. These methods are based on tissue elasticity reconstruction using the measured internal displacements occurring due to the deformation of the object under study. Dynamic loading of the object is considered.

[Quantitative analysis of mechanical characteristics of pathologically altered soft biological tissues].

The diagnostic importance of the mechanical properties of pathologically altered soft biological tissues is substantiated. The data on elastic properties of prostate and mammary gland obtained on postoperational material are presented. The methods of treating the experimental data used to determine these characteristics are described.
