Shear-Wave Elastography of Segmental Infarction of the Testis
Segmental testicular infarction (STI) is a rare cause of acute scrotum. The spectrum of findings on gray-scale and color Doppler ultrasonography differ depending on the time between the onset of testicular pain and the ultrasonography examination. We are not aware of the usefulness of shear-wave elastography for the diagnosis of STI. We report the shear-wave elastography features in a case of S...
متن کاملMeasuring shear-wave speed with point shear-wave elastography and MR elastography: a phantom study
OBJECTIVES To compare shear-wave speed (SWS) measured by ultrasound-based point shear-wave elastography (pSWE) and MR elastography (MRE) on phantoms with a known shear modulus, and to assess method validity and variability. METHODS 5 homogeneous phantoms of different stiffnesses were made. Shear modulus was measured by a rheometer, and this value was used as the standard. 10 SWS measurements ...
متن کاملSegmental infarction of the testis: can frozen sections avoid orchidectomy?
Segmental infarction (SI) of the testis is a rare condition that can masquerade as a mass lesion, thus requiring exclusion of tumour. If clinical exams do not exclude a neoplastic lesion with certainty, orchidectomy is usually performed. A case of SI of the testis is presented; the use of frozen section of the enucleated mass demonstrated the ischaemic nature of the lesion, so avoiding orchidec...
متن کاملclinical application of shear wave elastography in breast masses
results of the 133 breast lesions, 32 were malignant and 101 were benign. in the differentiation of benign and malignant lesions, conventional us resulted in sensitivity of 100 %, specificity of 43.0 %, ppv of 57.1 %, npv of 36.7 %, and accuracy of 100 %. regarding swe, the sensitivity, specificity, ppv, npv, and accuracy values based on emax were 84.4 %, 89.1 %, 71.1 %, 94.7 %, and 88.0 %, res...
متن کاملThree dimensional shear wave scattering MR elastography
Introduction: Magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) is a non invasive method that combines externally applied vibrations with the motion sensitivity of MRI to measure the shear elasticity soft tissues [1]. In MRE this is traditionally achieved by solving an inverse problem with MRE shear wave images as input data [2]. A complementary approach, which does not require the solution of an inverse p...
