A comparative study of strain and shear-wave elastography in an elasticity phantom

, 2015
OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this study was to assess the diagnostic accuracy of strain and shear-wave elastography for determining targets of varying stiffness in a phantom. The effect of target diameter on elastographic assessments and the effect of depth

Results of liver and spleen endoscopic ultrasonographic elastography predict portal hypertension secondary to chronic liver disease

Endoscopy International Open, 2020
Background and study aims Assessment of endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS)-elastography of the liver and spleen may identify patients with portal hypertension secondary to chronic liver disease. We aimed to evaluate use of EUS-elastography of the liver and

Soft Tissue Substitutes: Current Biomaterials and Indications at Teeth and Implant Sites

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This manuscript provides an updated overview of the current evidence on soft tissue graft substitutes for teeth and dental implants. When appropriately indicated, these biomaterials offer a reliable, less invasive alternative to autogenous grafts, effectively improving root coverage, keratinized mucosa width, and soft tissue thickness with reduced ...

Sonoelastography Findings in Breast Cancer: Correlation with Molecular Subtypes and Ki-67 Expression

Indonesian Journal of Cancer
Background: Strain elastography is increasingly used as a complementary imaging tool to assess suspicious breast lesions by evaluating tissue stiffness using the strain ratio and elastography score. Owing to the intertumor heterogeneity of breast cancer,

Soft‐Tissue Integration of Dental Implants: Formation, Maintenance, and Relevance for Peri‐Implant Health

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Sixty years after the introduction of dental implants, it is clear that soft‐tissue integration is as essential as osseointegration. This review outlines how peri‐implant soft tissues develop, protect, and sometimes fail, revealing key knowledge gaps and new opportunities to improve long‐term implant stability.

Periodontitis and metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease with systemic effects that extend beyond the oral cavity and contribute to systemic immune and metabolic dysregulation. Chronic liver diseases, particularly metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and its progressive phenotypes, have emerged as major global ...

Multiscale four‐dimensional imaging of cardiac remodelling after myocardial infarction

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Multiscale 4D imaging framework for integrated phenotyping of post‐infarction remodelling. Myocardial infarction triggers dynamic changes across mechanical, haemodynamic and biological axes, progressing from acute injury and inflammation to extracellular matrix remodelling and scar maturation.
