Use of Ultrasound Elastography in Characterization of Solid Breast Lesions
Purpose: To study the role of strain ultrasound elastography in diagnosis of solid breast lesions, and evaluate its capability in differentiating benign from malignant lesions, in comparison to histopathological diagnosis taken as the reference standard. Patients and Methods: A total of eligible 28 female patients with solid breast masses, were subjected in our prospective study; sampled in a s...
متن کاملFeatures of cystic breast lesions at ultrasound elastography*
OBJECTIVE: To demonstrate the most frequent features of cystic breast lesions at ultrasound elastography, discussing the applicability of this method. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The present casuistic included 150 patients referred for percutaneous breast biopsy of 175 lesions. Histologically diagnosed solid lesions (153 lesions) were excluded; lesions histologically diagnosed as cystic (22 lesions)...
متن کاملPractice guideline for the performance of breast ultrasound elastography
Ultrasound (US) elastography is a valuable imaging technique for tissue characterization. Two main types of elastography, strain and shear-wave, are commonly used to image breast tissue. The use of elastography is expected to increase, particularly with the increased use of US for breast screening. Recently, the US elastographic features of breast masses have been incorporated into the 2nd edit...
متن کاملRelationship between ultrasound elastography and myofibroblast distribution in breast cancer and its clinical significance
The study investigated the relationship between ultrasound elastography (USE) scoring and myofibroblast distribution with expression features of α-SMA +/CD34- in patients of Uyghur and Han ethnicities with breast masses in Xinjiang, China. The data was used to evaluate its clinical significance in the early diagnosis of breast cancer. A total of 300 patients with breast masses were included in ...
متن کاملMechanics of ultrasound elastography
Ultrasound elastography enables in vivo measurement of the mechanical properties of living soft tissues in a non-destructive and non-invasive manner and has attracted considerable interest for clinical use in recent years. Continuum mechanics plays an essential role in understanding and improving ultrasound-based elastography methods and is the main focus of this review. In particular, the mech...
