Reproducibility of shear wave elastography (SWE) in patients with chronic liver disease. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 The presence of significant fibrosis is an indicator for liver disease staging and prognosis. The aim of the study was to determine reproducibility of real-time shear wave elastography using a hepatic biopsy as the reference standard to identify patients

Evaluation of Liver Fibrosis and Inflammation Using Ultrasound Elastography [PDF]
Advanced Ultrasound in Diagnosis and Therapy, 2020 There are two ultrasound elastography methods currently available for evaluating liver fibrosis: Strain Imaging and Shear Wave Elastography. Strain imaging can estimate the degree of liver fibrosis without the influence of inflammation whilst the Shear ...

Evaluation of liver stiffness measurement–based scores in liver transplantation recipients
Liver Transplantation, EarlyView., 2022 Abstract Combining bioclinical parameters with liver stiffness measurement (LSM) has improved the diagnostic performance of vibration‐controlled transient elastography (VCTE) for detection of advanced fibrosis in patients with chronic liver disease. However, this approach has not yet been tested in liver transplantation (LT) recipients.

Elastogram: Physics, Clinical Applications, and Risks
Maternal-Fetal Medicine, 2019 . The tissue stiffness is always an interesting issue to clinicians. Traditionally, it is assessed by the manual palpation, and this now can be measured by the ultrasound-based elastography. The basic physics is based on Young's modulus through the Hooke'

Shear wave elastography in diffuse thyroid disease [PDF]
Biomedical Papers, 2021 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.A total of 46 patients with diffuse thyroid disease were examined clinically, by conventional ultrasound,
