Liver elastography malignancy prediction score for noninvasive characterization of focal liver lesions [PDF]
Liver International, 2017 AbstractBackground & AimsTo analyse elastographic characteristics of focal liver lesions (FLL)s and diagnostic performance of real‐time two‐dimensional shear‐wave elastography (RT‐2D‐SWE) in order to differentiate benign and malignant FLLs.MethodsConsecutive patients diagnosed with FLL by abdominal ultrasound (US) underwent RT‐2D‐SWE of FLL and non‐

Differential diagnosis of breast lesions using ultrasound elastography
Indian Journal of Radiology and Imaging, 2011 Context: The recent introduction of elastography has increased the specificity of USG and enabled early diagnosis of breast cancer. Quantitative elastography, especially with strain ratio (SR) index, improves diagnostic accuracy and decreased number of ...
