Testicular microlithiasis and preliminary experience of acoustic radiation force impulse imaging
BACKGROUND Elastography of the testis can be used as a part of multiparametric examination of the scrotum. PURPOSE To determine the testicular stiffness using acoustic radiation force impulse imaging (ARFI) technique in men with testicular microlithiasis (TML). MATERIAL AND METHODS In 2013, 12 patients with diagnosed testicular microlithiasis in 2008 (mean age, 51 years; age range, 25-76 ye...

متن کاملAcoustic Radiation Force Impulse Imaging for Differentiation of Thyroid Nodules
BACKGROUND Acoustic Radiation Force Impulse (ARFI)-Imaging is an ultrasound-based elastography method enabling quantitative measurement of tissue stiffness. The aim of the present study was to evaluate sensitivity and specificity of ARFI-imaging for differentiation of thyroid nodules and to compare it to the well evaluated qualitative real-time elastography (RTE). METHODS ARFI-imaging involve...
متن کاملAcoustic radiation force impulse imaging of kidneys – a phantom study
AIM OF THE STUDY Since there have been only few works reporting the diagnosis of kidneys using Acoustic Radiation Force Impulse technique and those works do not provide consistent results of shear wave velocity measurements in renal tissue, we have decided to use kidney phantoms with known properties to examine the reliability of the method itself in a controlled setup similar to kidneys examin...
متن کاملAcoustic radiation force impulse elastography in differentiating renal solid masses: a preliminary experience.
New diagnostic methods are required to diagnose renal mass. Thus, we assessed virtual tissue quantification (VTQ) of acoustic radiation force impulse (ARFI) elastography in differentiation of renal solid masses. Forty-two patients with renal masses were assessed by VTQ in terms of measurement of the shear wave velocity (SWV). The masses were divided into three groups. They were clear cell carci...
