Musculoskeletal Applications of Elastography: a Pictorial Essay of Our Initial Experience. Lalitha P, Reddy MC, Reddy KJ.. We have applied real-time sonoelastography to a variety of musculoskeletal pathologies and here we report the findings of elastography for the evaluation of various musculoskeletal pathologies. Elastography of.
The aim of this study was to evaluate whether compression elastography has a useful role in the planning of percutaneous ultrasound-guided biopsies of soft tissue tumours. Consecutive patients were.
Ultrasound is an essential modality within musculoskeletal imaging, with the recent addition of elastography. The elastic properties of tissues are different from the acoustic impedance used to create B mode imaging and the flow properties used within Doppler imaging, hence elastography provides a different form of tissue assessment. The current role of ultrasound elastography in the.
Sonoelastography has demonstrated feasibility in the diagnosis of cancers of the breast and liver, and in some preliminary work, in several musculoskeletal disorders. The main types of sonoelastography are compression elastography, shear-wave elastography, and transient elastography.
Puncture of trigger points in myofascial syndrome can be performed with greater safety for the patient under ultrasound-guided techniques. The identification of potentially hazardous structures in the path of the needle, together with the development and validation of tools like sonoelastography, spontaneous muscle contraction (twitch response), or vascular dynamics, helps us to be more.
