Elastography of the thyroid

Diagnostic and Interventional Imaging, 2013
Thyroid nodules are very common, while thyroid cancer is rare and has a very good prognosis. Thyroid nodule ultrasound characterization performed by experienced clinicians allows the selection of the tumours to be punctured and guiding fine needle aspiration (FNA).

Comparison of ELF, FibroTest and FibroScan for the non-invasive assessment of liver fibrosis [PDF]

, 2010
Background: FibroTest (FT) is the most frequently used serum fibrosis marker and consists of an algorithm of five fibrosis markers (alfa2-macroglobulin, apolipoproteinA1, haptoglobin, GGT, bilirubin). The Enhanced Liver Fibrosis (ELF) test consists of an

MR elastography: Principles, guidelines, and terminology

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, 2020
Magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) is a phase contrast–based MRI technique that can measure displacement due to propagating mechanical waves, from which material properties such as shear modulus can be calculated.

Shear wave elastography in diffuse thyroid disease

, 2021
Aim. Our aim was to examine the contribution of shear wave elastography to ultrasonographic assessment in diffuse thyroid disease, specifically to evaluate the stiffness of the thyroid gland in diffuse thyroid disease and compare it with healthy controls.
