Elastography: New Developments in Ultrasound for Predicting Malignancy in Thyroid Nodules

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2007
BACKGROUND: Elastography is a newly developed dynamic technique that uses ultrasound (US) to provide an estimation of tissue stiffness by measuring the degree of distortion under the application of an external force. US elastography has been applied to

Assessment of Allograft Fibrosis by Transient Elastography and Noninvasive Biomarker Scoring Systems in Liver Transplant Patients

Transplantation, 2010
This prospective, monocentric study was designed to assess the efficacy of transient elastography (TE), biochemical tests, and more complex scores in determining fibrosis stage in 157 patients transplanted for hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection or non-HCV-related liver diseases.The optimal TE cutoff values for HCV patients and non-HCV patients were 4.7 ...

Sequential SAFE Score and Transient Elastography for Detecting Significant Fibrosis in Asian Patients with MASLD

Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology
Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), formerly known as nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD),1 represents a global public health issue. Fibrosis stage is the most important risk for long-term undesirable outcomes.2,3 From recent meta-analyses, all-cause and liver-related mortalities significantly increased from fibrosis ...

Liver elastography malignancy prediction score for noninvasive characterization of focal liver lesions

Liver international, 2018
Abstract Background & Aims To 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. Methods Consecutive patients diagnosed with FLL by abdominal ultrasound (US) underwent RT‐2D‐SWE of FLL and ...

[Ultrasonic scores of conventional ultrasound and ultrasound elastography in the diagnosis of thyroid nodular lesions].

Zhonghua yi xue za zhi, 2014
To explore the values of total ultrasonic scores of conventional ultrasound and ultrasound elastography in the diagnosis of thyroid nodular lesions.A total of 347 thyroid nodules proved by fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) and surgery underwent preoperative conventional ultrasound and ultrasound elastography.

Objective ultrasound elastography scoring of thyroid nodules using spatiotemporal strain information.

Medical physics, 2013
Ultrasound (US) elastography measures the deformation of tissue in response to stress to derive and display its stiffness. Typically, the clinicians visually inspect and categorize the pseudo-color pattern of an elastography image into one of 5-6 different scores. This scoring method could lead to sizable variability due to its subjective nature.
