1. A Gabor domain optical coherence elastography system comprising:
a source configured to induce longitudinal shear waves (LSW) in a three-dimensional (3D) field of view (FOV) in an object;
a Gabor domain optical coherence microscope configured to observe the object and to detect displacement of locations said FOV in the object over a selected time interval in the presence of said LWS in the object; and
a processor system configured to computer-process said displacements to derive and display elastographic properties of said FOV of the object.
