Ultrasound stiffness imaging

Subjects will undergo transabdominal ultrasound of the distal intestine. Distal intestine motion capture will be used for off-line stiffness assessment by two-dimensional speckle tracking. In addition, shear wave imaging will be used for real-time stiffness assessment.
