To provide realistic surgical simulation, haptic feedback is important. In the existing surgical simulators, the fidelity of the deformation and haptic feedback is limited because they are based on the subjective evaluation of the expert-user and not on an objective model-based evaluation. To obtain elastic modulus of in-vivo human tissues, magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) was developed. MRE is a phase-contrast-based method that can visualize propagating strain waves in materials. The quantitative values of shear modulus can be calculated by estimating the local wavelength of the wave pattern. Low frequency mechanical motion must be used for soft tissue-like materials, because strain waves rapidly attenuate at higher frequency. Therefore, wavelength in MRE is long. It is difficult to estimate local wavelength with high spatial resolution especially from noisy MRE. In the MRE sequence, motion-sensitizing gradient (MSG) are synchronized with the mechanical cyclic motion. MRE with multiple initial phase offsets can be generated with increasing delays between the MSG and mechanical excitation. In this paper, we describe a method of measuring local wavelength with high spatial resolution by combining multiple phase offsets MRE. To confirm the reliability of this method, a computer simulation and phantom study were performed. The shear modulus measured with various elastic objects was well consistent with the value obtained by MRE and the mechanical method. The shear moduli of excised porcine liver and invivo human calf muscle were also analyzed by this method.
