Sonoelastography in de Quervain Thyroiditis [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2011
Sonoelastography is a novel technique, providing an objective estimation of tissue elasticity by measuring the degree of distortion under the application of an external force (1). Recent studies demonstrated exceptional utility of sonoelastography in preoperative evaluation of thyroid nodules because neoplastic transformation is often associated with ...

The Sonoelastography and Functional Outcome of Upper Extremity after Kinesiotaping on the Spastic Forearm in Patients with Subacute Stroke

open access: yesBioMed Research International, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Objectives. This study is aimed at exploring the feasibility of sonoelastography on muscle stiffness of spastic forearm and evaluating the improvement of functional performance in patients with poststroke spasticity (PSS) after receiving kinesiotaping (KT) and rehabilitation. Methods. According to the spastic levels (using modified Ashworth scale (MAS))

The Value of Liver and Spleen Stiffness for Evaluation of Portal Hypertension in Compensated Cirrhosis

open access: yesHepatology Communications, Volume 6, Issue 5, Page 950-964, May 2022., 2022
Patients with compensated advanced chronic liver disease may develop portal hypertension that indicates high risk for progression to decompensated cirrhosis. Elastography of the liver and the spleen may overcome the limitation of the invasive gold‐standard for assessing severity of portal hypertension, which is hepatic venous pressure gradient.

Quantifying Region‐Specific Elastic Properties of Distal Femoral Articular Cartilage: A Shear‐Wave Elastography Study

open access: yesApplied Bionics and Biomechanics, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Knee osteoarthritis is a disease with the degeneration of articular cartilage as its main feature. Cartilage thickness cannot become a single index to evaluate cartilage degeneration, so it is essential to also evaluate the stiffness. The purposes were as follows: (1) to examine test‐retest reliabilities of the elastic modulus measurement in distal ...

Branchial Cleft Cyst With Coexisting Tuberculous Lymphadenitis in an Elderly Patient: A Diagnostic Challenge [PDF]

open access: yesClin Case Rep
ABSTRACT Cystic lateral neck masses in elderly patients require careful evaluation as clinical and cytological findings may be misleading. Histopathology remains essential for definitive diagnosis, and the uncommon coexistence of congenital lesions with tuberculous lymphadenitis should be considered in endemic regions.
