Summary of meta-analyses of studies considering lesion size cut-off thresholds for the assessment of eligibility for FNAB and sonoelastography and inter- and intra-observer agreement in estimating the malignant potential of focal lesions of the thyroid gland

Journal of Ultrasonography, 2022
Thyroid cancer is a tumour with a steadily increasing incidence. It accounts for 7% to 15% of focal lesions detected by ultrasound, depending on age, gender and other factors affecting its occurrence.

Sonoelastography for Skin Evaluation in Sclerodermic Patients

International Journal of Preventive Medicine, 2019
Background: The objective of the study is to evaluate elastography ultrasound findings in patients with scleroderma (SS) and to clarify the effectiveness of elastosonography to differentiate scleroderma lesions from any skin lesion considering tissue elasticity.

The Application of Shear Wave Elastography to Determine the Elasticity of the Levator Ani Muscle and Vaginal Tissue in Patients With Pelvic Organ Prolapse

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, Volume 43, Issue 5, Page 913-921, May 2024.
Objectives The changes of the extracellular matrix of the connective tissue have significantly contributed to the incidence of pelvic organ prolapse (POP). It seems reasonable that sonoelastography could be a useful tool to evaluate the elasticity of pelvic floor tissue in patients with POP and compare it to those without POP.

Quantitative measurements of radiation‐induced fibrosis for head and neck cancer: A narrative review

Laryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, Volume 9, Issue 2, April 2024.
This review explores various physical properties of tissues, including Young's modulus and viscoelasticity, and different diagnostic modalities, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), acoustic radiation force imaging (ARFI), and shear wave elastography (SWE), for evaluating radiation‐induced fibrosis in patients who have undergone head and neck ...
