Objective: Many studies have conflicting findings in using shear wave elastography (SWE) to
assess renal fibrosis. This study reviews the use of SWE to evaluate pathological changes in …

Shear wave elastography (SWE) is now becoming an indispensable diagnostic tool in the
routine examination of liver diseases. In particular, accuracy is required for shear wave …

Aim Renal biopsy is the gold standard for the histological characterization of chronic kidney
disease (CKD), of which renal fibrosis is a dominant component, affecting its stiffness. The …

Shear wave elastography (SWE) induces lateral shear wave through acoustic pulses of the
transducer and evaluates tissue stiffness quantitatively. This study was performed to …

Background Two-dimensional shear wave elastography (2D-SWE) is a powerful technique
that can non-invasively measure liver stiffness to assess hepatic fibrosis. Purpose This study …

The role of noninvasive liver disease assessment by two-dimensional shear wave
elastography (2D-SWE) to diagnose fibrosis is well described in patients with chronic liver …

The aim of this research was to investigate the use of shear wave elastography as a novel
tool to quantify and visualize scar stiffness after a burn. Increased scar stiffness is indicative …

In this article, we describe our experience with shear wave propagation imaging (SWPI) as
an adjunct to 2‐dimensional (2D) shear wave elastography (SWE) in a cohort of patients …

Chronic liver disease remains a substantial worldwide problem. Accurate estimation of liver
fibrosis is crucial for determining the stage of the disease, assessing the patient's prognosis …

Introduction Hepatic steatosis screening is required to assess high‐risk populations, identify
those for intervention, monitor response and prevent disease progression and …
