Shear Wave Elastography versus Strain Elastography in Diagnosing Parathyroid Adenomas [PDF]

International Journal of Endocrinology, 2020
Objectives. The aim of the study was to compare elastographic means in parathyroid adenomas, using shear wave elastography and strain elastography. Methods. This prospective study examined 20 consecutive patients diagnosed with primary hyperparathyroidism and parathyroid adenoma, confirmed by biochemical assay, technetium-99 sestamibi scintigraphy, and

Application of the novel estimation method by shear wave elastography using vibrator to human skeletal muscle

Scientific Reports, 2020
In recent years, non-invasive measurement of tissue stiffness (hardness) using ultrasound elastography has attracted considerable attention. It has been used to evaluate muscle stiffness in the fields of rehabilitation, sports, and orthopedics.

The evaluation of liver fibrosis regression in chronic hepatitis C patients after the treatment with direct-acting antiviral agents – A review of the literature [PDF]

, 2019
The second-generation of direct-acting antiviral agents are the current treatment for chronic viral hepatitis C infection. To evaluate the regression of liver fibrosis in patients receiving this therapy, liver biopsy remains the most accurate method, but

Posture-induced changes in peripheral nerve stiffness measured by ultrasound shear-wave elastography [PDF]

, 2017
Introduction: Peripheral nerves slide and stretch during limb movements. Changes in nerve stiffness associated with such movements have not been examined in detail but may be important in understanding movement-evoked pain in patients with a variety of ...

Lorentz force induced shear waves for magnetic resonance elastography applications

Scientific Reports, 2021
Quantitative mechanical properties of biological tissues can be mapped using the shear wave elastography technique. This technology has demonstrated a great potential in various organs but shows a limit due to wave attenuation in biological tissues.
