Use of shear wave elastography to differentiate benign and malignant breast lesions.
PURPOSE We aimed to determine the correlations between the elasticity values of solid breast masses and histopathological findings to define cutoff elasticity values differentiating malignant from benign lesions. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 115 solid breast lesions of 109 consecutive patients were evaluated prospectively using shear wave elastography (SWE). Two orthogonal elastographic i...
متن کاملImmunophenotypic markers to differentiate between benign and malignant melanocytic lesions.
BACKGROUND/AIMS The authors investigated the expression of S100A1, S100A6, S100B, MelanA, and CEA in conjunctival naevi, primary acquired melanosis (PAM), conjunctival melanoma, and uveal melanoma in order to assess their potential usefulness in the pathological differential diagnosis of these entities. METHODS Paraffin embedded sections of 18 conjunctival naevi, 14 PAM, 16 conjunctival melan...
متن کاملApplication of 3D and 2D quantitative shear wave elastography (SWE) to differentiate between benign and malignant breast masses
As breast cancer tissues are stiffer than normal tissues, shear wave elastography (SWE) can locally quantify tissue stiffness and provide histological information. Moreover, tissue stiffness can be observed on three-dimensional (3D) colour-coded elasticity maps. Our objective was to evaluate the diagnostic performances of quantitative features in differentiating breast masses by two-dimensional...
متن کاملA novel two-dimensional quantitative shear wave elastography for differentiating malignant from benign breast lesions.
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic performance of a novel quantitative shear wave elastography (SWE) of virtual touch tissue imaging quantification (VTIQ) in diagnosis of breast lesions. METHODS The conventional ultrasound (US) and VTIQ images of 133 pathologically proven breast lesions in 98 patients were assessed. The breast lesions were classified by US brea...
متن کاملDiagnostic potential of real-time elastography (RTE) and shear wave elastography (SWE) to differentiate benign and malignant thyroid nodules
BACKGROUND Real-time elastography (RTE) and shear wave elastography (SWE) are noninvasive and easily available imaging techniques that measure the tissue strain, and it has been reported that the sensitivity and the specificity of elastography were better in differentiating between benign and malignant thyroid nodules than conventional technologies. METHODS Relevant articles were searched in ...
