Ultrasound Elastography to Evaluate Keloids
Motoko Naitoh, MD, PhD Shigehiko Suzuki, MD, PhD Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Graduate School of Medicine Kyoto University Kyoto, Japan Sir: U elastographic methods have provided the means for the objective and noninvasive evaluation of the stiffness of organs, such as the liver, breast, and thyroid. For example, liver ultrasound elastography provides information regarding t...
متن کاملIntroduction to ultrasound elastography
For centuries tissue palpation has been an important diagnostic tool. During palpation, tumors are felt as tissues harder than the surrounding tissues. The significance of palpation is related to the relationship between mechanical properties of different tissue lesions. The assessment of tissue stiffness through palpation is based on the fact that mechanical properties of tissues are changing ...
متن کاملConsidering Angle Selection When Using Ultrasound Electrode Displacement Elastography to Evaluate Radiofrequency Ablation of Tissues
Percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a minimally invasive treatment to thermally destroy tumors. Ultrasound-based electrode-displacement elastography is an emerging technique for evaluating the region of RFA-induced lesions. The angle between the imaging probe and the RFA electrode can influence electrode-displacement elastography when visualizing the ablation zone. We explored the ang...
متن کاملEndoscopic ultrasound elastography
Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) elastography is an imaging procedure used for the visualization of tissue elasticity during usual EUS examinations. EUS elastography can be accomplished real-time with state-of-the-art ultrasound systems, with the images being represented in transparent color superimposed on the conventional gray-scale B-mode scans. The aim of this review was to introduce the potenti...
متن کاملQuasi-Static Ultrasound Elastography.
Elastography is a new imaging modality where elastic tissue parameters related to the structural organization of normal and pathological tissues are imaged. Basic principles underlying the quasi-static elastography concept and principles are addressed. The rationale for elastographic imaging is reinforced using data on elastic properties of normal and abnormal soft tissues. The several orders o...
