Does shear wave ultrasound independently predict axillary lymph node metastasis in women with invasive breast cancer? [PDF]
, 2013 Shear wave elastography (SWE) shows promise as an adjunct to greyscale ultrasound examination in assessing breast masses. In breast cancer, higher lesion stiffness on SWE has been shown to be associated with features of poor prognosis.
