Shear Wave Elastography in the Diagnosis of Thyroid Nodules with Coexistent Chronic Autoimmune Hashimoto's Thyroiditis.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the diagnostic performance of shear wave elastography (SWE) in the differentiation of malignant and benign thyroid nodules with coexistent Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT). STUDY DESIGN Case series with chart review. SETTING Tertiary general hospital. SUBJECTS AND METHODS From September 2012 to January 2014, conventional ultrasound and SWE were performed on 243 patients ...
متن کاملUtility of Shear Wave Elastography for Diagnosing Chronic Autoimmune Thyroiditis
The aims of this study were to evaluate the utility of shear wave elastography (SWE) using acoustic radiation force impulse (ARFI) for diagnosing chronic autoimmune thyroiditis (CAT) and to verify the effect of fibrotic thyroid tissue on shear wave velocity (SWV). The subjects were 229 patients with 253 normal thyroid lobes (controls) and 150 CAT lobes. The SWV for CAT (2.47 ± 0.57 m/s) was sig...
متن کاملThe role of shear wave elastography in the diagnosis of chronic autoimmune thyroiditis.
AIMS The aim of this study is to assess the applicability of shear wave elastography (SWE) in the diagnosis of chronic autoimmune thyroiditis (CAT) patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study group consisted of 50 patients with first-diagnosed CAT and 40 control subjects (CS). In all patients with CAT and CS, sonoelastographic measurements were made in both thyroid lobes. Optimal cut-off values ...
متن کاملMeasuring shear-wave speed with point shear-wave elastography and MR elastography: a phantom study
OBJECTIVES To compare shear-wave speed (SWS) measured by ultrasound-based point shear-wave elastography (pSWE) and MR elastography (MRE) on phantoms with a known shear modulus, and to assess method validity and variability. METHODS 5 homogeneous phantoms of different stiffnesses were made. Shear modulus was measured by a rheometer, and this value was used as the standard. 10 SWS measurements ...
متن کامل3 Hashimoto ’ s Thyroiditis
Hashimoto’s thyroiditis is a common autoimmune disorder, which causes significant morbidity. Its pathophysiological hallmark is lymphocytic infiltration of thyroid follicles resulting in autoimmune glandular destruction. Various studies have successfully outlined the genetic and environmental factors responsible for the causation of the disease. In this chapter we will discuss our current under...
