Performance of shear wave elastography for differentiation of benign and malignant solid breast masses.
OBJECTIVES: To perform a meta-analysis assessing the ability of shear wave elastography (SWE) to identify malignant breast masses. METHODS: PubMed, the Cochrane Library, and the ISI Web of Knowledge were searched for studies evaluating the accuracy of SWE for identifying malignant breast masses. The...
