Cervical strain elastography improves mid-trimester prediction of spontaneous preterm birth beyond cervical length: a single-center cohort study [PDF]
ObjectiveSpontaneous preterm birth (sPTB) remains a leading cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality, and cervical length (CL) alone has limited predictive performance in asymptomatic women. Cervical strain elastography may capture biomechanical changes

The Avaibility of Strain Elastography in a Hydatid Cyst – Interobserver Study [PDF]
To differentiate the hydatid cyst (HC) types by ultrasound elastography using two different sizes (4 mm and 8 mm) of the region of interest (ROI) and asking two different radiologists (interobserver) for their opinion.Patients with HC were evaluated by USG elastography. The statistical anayses were performed using Strain index (SI) which is the unit of

Role of Strain Elastography in the Evaluation of Testicular Torsion
ObjectivesTo evaluate the utility of real‐time strain elastography in experimentally induced testicular torsion at different degrees and torsion hours.MethodsThirty‐one Wistar albino rats were divided into 4 torsion groups by twisting left testes (group I, sham operated; group II, 360°; group III, 720°; and group IV, 1080°). Elastography was applied at

CEUS and strain elastography in gastric carcinoma [PDF]
Gastric cancer is the fourth most common type of cancer, but diagnosis is often delayed. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy is currently the gold standard for evaluating gastric cancer. Also other imaging modalities, such as computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging are employed for identifying gastric cancer, but particularly for cancer staging ...

Diagnostic values of shear wave elastography and strain elastography for breast lesions [PDF]
Strain elastography (SE) and shear wave elastography (SWE) have high diagnostic yield for breast lesions, but the optimal parameters remain elusive.To evaluate the diagnostic yield of SWE and SE for breast lesions by multivariate logistic regression analysis.A total of 132 patients with 164 breast tumors were enrolled.

Diagnostic accuracy of strain ultrasound elastography in differentiating benign and malignant thyroid nodules, taking histopathology as gold standard [PDF]
Background: Elastography is a method recently being used in the evaluation of thyroid nodules by comparing tissue elasticity. Strain and shear wave elastography are two types of elastography still being used in clinical practice.

Usefulness of strain elastography of the musculoskeletal system [PDF]
Ultrasound elastography is a widely used technique for assessing the mechanical characteristics of tissues. Although there are several ultrasound elastography techniques, strain elastography (SE) is currently the most widely used technique for visualizing an elastographic map in real time.
