Muscle hardness is a mechanical property that represents transverse muscle stiffness. A quantitative method that uses ultrasound elastography for quantifying absolute human muscle hardness has been previously devised; however, its reliability and validity have not been completely verified. This study aimed to verify the reliability and validity of this quantitative method. The Young's moduli of...

Techniques to image elasticity parameters (i.e., elastography) have recently become of great interest to researchers. In this paper we use conventional ultrasound elastography and x-ray CT to image radio frequency (RF) ablation sites of excised canine liver enclosed in gelatin. Thermal coagulations of different sizes were produced by applying the RF procedure for various times and end point tem...

Introduction This paper presents initial experience with a new Toshiba elastography imaging system used to detect prostate cancer. Since this is a preliminary evaluation, the elastography imaging procedure was performed in addition to our standard procedure of ten systematic biopsies, plus extra biopsies of suspicious areas where appropriate. The elastography images did not influence the biopsy...

The clinical part of these Guidelines and Recommendations produced under the auspices of the European Federation of Societies for Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology EFSUMB assesses the clinically used applications of all forms of elastography, stressing the evidence from meta-analyses and giving practical advice for their uses and interpretation. Diffuse liver disease forms the largest section,...

BACKGROUND Ultrasound transient elastography technology has found its place in elastography because it is safe and easy to operate. However, it's application in deep tissue is limited. The aim of this study is to design an ultrasound transient elastography system with coded excitation to obtain greater detection depth. METHODS The ultrasound transient elastography system requires tissue vibra...

BACKGROUND Elastography is widely used as a diagnostic tool for the diagnosis of invasive breast cancer. However, no study has yet shown if elastography for diagnosing mucinous carcinoma is as useful as that for diagnosing the usual invasive carcinoma. Mucinous carcinoma is considered as a soft tumor. In this study, we used elastography to evaluate the elasticity of mucinous carcinoma. METHOD...

Sonographic elastography is a new technique for measurement of the tissue stiffness, and is currently under investigation for tissue characterization in several anatomic sites. In recent years, real-time Ultrasonography elastography (USE) modes have appeared on commercially available clinical ultrasound machines, stimulating an explosion of research into potential oncologic and non-oncologic cl...

Elastography is one of technologies assisting diagnosis of solid pancreatic lesions (SPL). This technology has been previously used for measuring the stiffness of various organs based on a principle of "harder the lesions, higher chance for malignancy". Two elastography techniques; strain and shear wave elastography, are available. For endoscopic ultrasound (EUS), only the former is existing. T...

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this article is to provide an overview of ultrasound and MR elastography, including a glossary of relevant terminology, a classification of elastography techniques, and a discussion of their respective strengths and limitations. CONCLUSION Elastography is an emerging technique for the noninvasive assessment of mechanical tissue properties. These techniques report metr...

Acupunct Med Month 2017 Vol 0 No 0 Figure 1 Shear wave elastography of the gastrocnemius muscle in a longitudinal plane. Rectangular field of view demonstrating good quality shear-wave elastogram as indicated by homogeneously distributed blue colour-coded muscle (A) and evenly spaced propagation waves (B). Quantitative analysis of gastrocnemius muscle stiffness was achieved by placing the small...
