Using shear-wave elastography in skeletal muscle: data repository of a reliability study

This repository contains raw data from experiments investigating the reliability of shear-wave<br> elastography (SWE) to assess muscle stiffness. The first dataset contains meat specimen experiments (using<br> porcine meat specimens). The second and third datasets contain the measurements of human<br> subjects, performed on the first and second visit to the laboratory, respectively. All values are in<br> kilopascals (kPa). This experiment showed that SWE is a reliable tool for assessing muscle stiffness,<br> when the probe pressure is kept constant and the muscle is examined in relaxed condition.
