High-frequency ultrasonic measurements inadequately estimate passive cardiac elastic moduli; supports incompressible anisotropic models but leaves validation open.
An incompressible anisotropic elastic model is appropriate for elasticity reconstruction in the heart, whereas current high-frequency ultrasonic measurements are inadequate for estimating static deformations.
O'Donnell et al. (2004) studied this question.
