A case of shear wave velocity reflecting the disease activity in glomerulonephritis
Ultrasound elastography can measure tissue elasticity using the shear wave velocity (SWV). Evaluating disease activity with elastography instead of renal biopsy may be less invasive.

Diagnosis of Thyroid Nodules by Elastography
Ultrasonography is mandatory for the evaluation of thyroid nodules. Although B-mode and Doppler ultrasonography are both sensitive for the diagnosis of thyroid lesions, they lack specificity in differentiating benign from malignant nodules.

On Validation of Non-physical Techniques for Elastic Image Registration [PDF]
Non-physical techniques for elastic image registration such as different spline-based optimization methods are often applied in biomedical applications for image normalization w.r.t. non-rigid transformations. Since mechanical properties of biological structures to be registered are usually unknown, a “ground truth”validation of the results of image ...

Usefulness of ultrasound elastography in reducing the number of Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System category 3 lesions on ultrasonography [PDF]
Purpose: To evaluate the negative predictive value (NPV) of ultrasound (US) elastography for non-palpable Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) category 3 lesions on ultrasonography and to determine whether US elastography is helpful in ...

Laser Metal Deposited Ti4822 Hollow Pipe: Experimental and Computational Modelling Study
Laser metal deposition (LMD) of a crack‐free built Ti4822 alloys is challenging. This article reports outstanding characteristics of a hollow pipe that is built with LMD technology when a predicted, nontransformation substrate temperature of 800 °C is used.
