This title is a really bad representation of what the actual technology is. Instead, something closer to the actual research is: "X-ray elastography by visualizing propagating shear waves" which actually makes sense. Elastography in X-Ray is what is being described and not an imaging technique that is "clearer" than MRI...

How many % of the people not part of the field would understand what ‘shear waves’ or elastography is?
I'm not suggesting that the title be replaced with that, the current title is a blatant misrepresentation of the actual work.
It may not be clear, but "X-ray elastography by visualizing propagating shear waves" is the actual title of the paper. pavanagrawal123 shouldn't be getting downvotes.
