Diagnostic features of quantitative comb-push shear elastography for breast lesion differentiation.

BACKGROUND:Lesion stiffness measured by shear wave elastography has shown to effectively separate benign from malignant breast masses. The aim of this study was to evaluate different aspects of Comb-push Ultrasound Shear Elastography (CUSE) performance in differentiating breast masses. METHODS:With...
