Preclinical evaluation of acoustic radiation force impulse measurements in regions of heterogeneous elasticity

Purpose The purpose of this study was to compare the reliability of ultrasound-based shear wave elastography in regions of homogeneous versus heterogeneous elasticity by using two different probes. Methods Using acoustic radiation force impulse (ARFI) elastography, we measured the shear wave velocit...
