What is Elastography
Elastography is an advanced imaging feature that provides non-invasive, quantitative assessments of tissue stiffness. This tool is highly beneficial for diagnosing and monitoring diseases like liver fibrosis, tumors, and other conditions where tissue elasticity changes. Elastography is commonly used in applications such as abdominal imaging, musculoskeletal, and breast care.
How Elastography Works
Elastography works by sending a mechanical pulse through tissues, and the ultrasound system measures how these tissues respond to the shear waves. Softer tissues respond differently compared to stiffer tissues, allowing the system to provide a detailed map of tissue elasticity. The system offers real-time feedback, enabling clinicians to assess tissue stiffness and detect abnormalities more accurately.
Key Benefits
Non-Invasive Diagnosis
Provides a quantitative assessment of tissue stiffness without the need for biopsies or other invasive methods.
Enhanced Diagnostic Accuracy
Helps in early detection of diseases like liver fibrosis or cancer, improving patient outcomes.
Real-Time Monitoring
Enables clinicians to monitor disease progression or treatment response in real time.
In-Depth Features
2D Shear Wave Imaging: Allows real-time evaluation of tissue stiffness, providing clinicians with a quantitative assessment.
Multi-Application Use: Suitable for liver, breast, thyroid, and musculoskeletal imaging.
Volume Navigation Integration: Can be combined with other imaging modalities like MRI for more detailed diagnostics.
Non-Invasive Technology: Reduces the need for painful or invasive diagnostic procedures.
Reliable and Repeatable Results: Provides consistent results across different scans, reducing variability between operators.
Real-World Use Cases
Case Study: Non-Invasive Tissue Analysis with Elastography
In liver diagnostics, Elastography offers a non-invasive method to measure tissue stiffness, aiding in the diagnosis of liver fibrosis. This feature reduces the need for invasive biopsies while providing accurate real-time information about tissue elasticity.
"Elastography has revolutionized how we assess liver fibrosis. It's a fast, non-invasive tool that gives us reliable results, improving patient comfort and outcomes."
— Dr. Linda Foster, Hepatologist
