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.
Elastography is an emerging technique for the noninvasive assessment of mechanical tissue properties. These techniques report metrics related to tissue stiffness, such as shear-wave speed, magnitude of the complex shear modulus, and the Young modulus.
本文旨在概述超声弹性成像和磁共振弹性成像,包括相关术语词汇表、弹性成像技术分类,以及对它们各自优缺点的讨论。
弹性成像是一种用于无创评估组织力学特性的新兴技术。这些技术报告与组织硬度相关的指标,如剪切波速度、复剪切模量大小和杨氏模量。
