Elastogram: Physics, Clinical Applications, and Risks

open access: yesMaternal-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'

Does shear wave ultrasound independently predict axillary lymph node metastasis in women with invasive breast cancer? [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.
