Ultrasound elastography: How can it help in differentiating breast lesions?
The Egyptian Journal of Radiology and Nuclear Medicine, 2018 Introduction: Elastography is considered a non-invasive imaging modality which determines the tumors according to their stiffness. Strain images representing the stiffness of the lesions compared to that of the surrounding normal tissue.
