Ultrasound Shear Wave Elastography in Cardiology
JACC: Cardiovascular ImagingThe advent of high-frame rate imaging in ultrasound allowed the development of shear wave elastography as a noninvasive alternative for myocardial stiffness assessment. It measures mechanical waves propagating along the cardiac wall with speeds that are related to stiffness.

Plane wave elastography: a frequency-domain ultrasound shear wave elastography approach [PDF]
Physics in Medicine & Biology, 2021 Abstract In this paper, we propose plane wave elastography (PWE), a novel ultrasound shear wave elastography (SWE) approach. Currently, commercial methods for SWE rely on directional filtering based on the prior knowledge of the wave propagation direction, to remove complicated wave patterns formed due to reflection and refraction ...

Using Shear-Wave Elastography to Assess Exercise-Induced Muscle Damage: A Review
Sensors, 2022 Shear-wave elastography is a method that is increasingly used to assess muscle stiffness in clinical practice and human health research. Recently, shear-wave elastography has been suggested and used to assess exercise-induced muscle damage.

Shear wave elastography with a new reliability indicator [PDF]
Journal of Ultrasonography, 2016 Non-invasive methods for liver stiffness assessment have been introduced over recent years. Of these, two main methods for estimating liver fibrosis using ultrasound elastography have become established in clinical practice: shear wave elastography and ...

Shear-Wave-Elastography in Neurofibromatosis Type I [PDF]
Diagnostics, 2022 Ultrasound shear wave elastography (SWE) is an increasingly used imaging modality that expands clinical ultrasound by measuring the elasticity of various tissues, such as the altered elasticity of tumors. Peripheral nerve tumors are rare, have been well-characterized by B-mode-ultrasound, but have not yet been investigated with SWE.

Future of breast elastography [PDF]
Ultrasonography, 2019 Both strain elastography and shear wave elastography have been shown to have high sensitivity and specificity for characterizing breast lesions as benign or malignant. Training is important for both strain and shear wave elastography.
