Title: On some Inverse Problems in Elastography

Abstract:
Elastography, as an imaging modality in general, aims at mapping the mechanical properties of a given sample. This modality is of use in Medicine, in particular for the non-invasive identification of malignant formations inside the human skin or tissue biopsies during surgeries. In term of diagnostics accuracy, one is interested in quantitative values of strain and stiffness mapped on top of the visualization of a sample, rather than only in qualitative images. For estimating the values quantitatively, we look at Elastography from the perspective of Inverse Problems.
