Monitoring Breast Cancer Response to Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy Using Ultrasound Strain Elastography [PDF]

, 2019
© 2019 The Authors Strain elastography was used to monitor response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in 92 patients with biopsy-proven, locally advanced breast cancer. Strain elastography data were collected before, during, and after NAC.

Value of 2‐Dimensional Shear‐Wave Elastography in Assessing Tibial Nerve Stiffness in Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
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

Strain Elastography - How To Do It?

Ultrasound International Open, 2017
Tissue stiffness assessed by palpation for diagnosing pathology has been used for thousands of years. Ultrasound elastography has been developed more recently to display similar information on tissue stiffness as an image.

Fluids Alter Elasticity Measurements: Porous Wave Propagation Accounts for Shear Wave Dispersion in Elastography

Frontiers in Physics, 2021
In shear wave elastography, rotational wave speeds are converted to elasticity measures using elastodynamic theory. The method has a wide range of applications and is the gold standard for non-invasive liver fibrosis detection.

Shear Wave Elastography for Characterization of Breast Lesions in Clinical Routine

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Objectives Breast cancer remains a major global health challenge, and conventional B‐mode ultrasound frequently encounters limitations in reliably distinguishing benign from malignant lesions, particularly within intermediate Breast Imaging‐Reporting and Data System (BI‐RADS) categories.

Comparison of strain and shear wave elastography for qualitative and quantitative assessment of breast masses in the same population

Scientific Reports, 2018
We investigated addition of strain and shear wave elastography to conventional ultrasonography for the qualitative and quantitative assessment of breast masses; cut-off points were determined for strain ratio, elasticity ratio, and visual score for ...

Spatial resolution in dynamic optical coherence elastography [PDF]

, 2019
Dynamic optical coherence elastography (OCE) tracks elastic wave propagation speed within tissue, enabling quantitative three-dimensional imaging of the elastic modulus. We show that propagating mechanical waves are mode converted at interfaces, creating
