Fig. 1 Anterior tissue biopsy should be performed to obtain tissue along the anterior capsule. For random biopsy, a needle should be advanced about 1.5 cm from the anterior capsule…
Fig. 1 Zonal anatomy of the prostate Reprinted from (2) with permission The prostate is composed of tuboalveolar glands surrounded by fibromuscular stroma. This stroma is composed of collagen and…
Fig. 1 As the incident wave bounces back and forth between surfaces A and B (yellow arrows), the returning waves are perceived by the probe as returning from reflectors progressively…

and represents the change in displacement with depth (i.e., how tissue compresses). Strain is related both to the applied stress (σ, i.e., force per unit area) and the inherent tissue…
