Value of 2-Dimensional Shear-Wave Elastography in Assessing Tibial Nerve Stiffness in Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy. [PDF]
Objectives The morphological alterations of the tibial nerve in patients with diabetes mellitus, both with and without diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN), are challenging to differentiate using B‐mode ultrasound. In this study, we assessed the stiffness changes of the tibial nerve by 2‐dimensional shear‐wave elastography (2D‐SWE). Methods We gathered

Reproducibility of Natural Shear Wave Elastography Measurements [PDF]
For the quantification of myocardial function, myocardial stiffness can potentially be measured non-invasively using shear wave elastography. Clinical diagnosis requires high precision. In 10 healthy volunteers, we studied the reproducibility of the measurement of propagation speeds of shear waves induced by aortic and mitral valve closure (AVC, MVC ...

Lorentz force induced shear waves for magnetic resonance elastography applications
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.

Ultrasound elastography: compression elastography and shear-wave elastography in the assessment of tendon injury [PDF]
Ultrasound elastography (USE) is a recent technology that has experienced major developments in the past two decades. The assessment of the main mechanical properties of tissues can be made with this technology by characterisation of their response to stress.
