Angular Integral Autocorrelation for Speed Estimation in Shear-Wave Elastography

Acoustics
The utilization of a reverberant shear-wave field in shear-wave elastography has emerged as a promising technique for achieving robust shear-wave speed (SWS) estimation.

Liver stiffness in chronic hepatitis C virus infection

Romanian Journal of Internal Medicine, 2019
Introduction. The severity of liver fibrosis can be assessed noninvasively today by liver stiffness measurements. Vibration-controlled transient elastography, shear wave elastography or magnetic resonance elastography are techniques increasingly used for

Piezoelectric needle sensor reveals mechanical heterogeneity in human thyroid tissue lesions. [PDF]

, 2019
Palpable thyroid lesions are common, and although mostly benign, lethal malignant nodules do occur and may be difficult to differentiate. Here, we introduce the use of a piezoelectric system called Smart-touch fine needle (or STFN) mounted directly onto ...

Vibration‐controlled transient elastography in pediatric metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, Volume 82, Issue 3, Page 741-750, March 2026.
Abstract Objectives Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is a prevalent disease in children. Vibration‐controlled transient elastography (VCTE) offers a noninvasive alternative to liver biopsy, using controlled attenuation parameter (CAP) to estimate steatosis and liver stiffness measurement (LSM) for fibrosis.

Overview of Diagnostic Ultrasound Safety

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, Volume 45, Issue 3, Page 487-496, March 2026.
Ultrasound is widely regarded as a safe imaging modality; however, emerging ultrasound‐based techniques—such as shear wave elastography and contrast‐enhanced ultrasound—operate with varying acoustic output parameters that may approach or exceed traditional diagnostic limits. As these technologies are increasingly integrated into human research studies,

A Multimodal Ultrasound Approach Combining Transperineal and Transrectal Shear Wave Elastography for Early Prediction of Stress Urinary Incontinence in Women

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, Volume 45, Issue 3, Page 621-630, March 2026.
Objectives This study aims to evaluate the diagnostic value of a novel multimodal approach combining transperineal ultrasound (TPUS), transrectal dual‐plane ultrasound, and shear wave elastography (SWE) in predicting stress urinary incontinence (SUI). Methods A total of 70 women diagnosed with SUI and 110 healthy controls were included.

Diagnostic utility of renal shear wave elastography and renal Doppler findings in diabetic nephropathy: a case–control study

The Egyptian Journal of Radiology and Nuclear Medicine
Background Diabetes mellitus is a common systemic disease that affects the kidneys and could eventually develop an end-stage renal failure. Renal biopsy is considered a gold standard for histological characterization of diabetic nephropathy, of which ...
