Liver stiffness measurement techniques: Basics

Book section · January 1, 2022 Liver stiffness measurements can be estimated by multiple techniques. This chapter describes the basic principles of the various methods. The strain elastography techniques are briefly described as the acoustic radiation force imaging (ARFI) technique is n ... Full text Cite

Artifacts in liver stiffness evaluation

Book section · January 1, 2022 Recognizing and understanding artifacts is critical to performing accurate liver stiffness measurements. Artifacts are very common in liver stiffness measurements. There are several types of artifacts that can occur. Artifacts can occur due to poor acquisi ... Full text Cite

Characterizing liver stiffness with acoustic radiation force

Book section · January 1, 2020 Acoustic radiation force elasticity imaging (ARFI) methods have become a viable clinical option to noninvasively evaluate the stiffness of the liver to evaluate fibrosis stage. Unlike external vibration-based methods such as transient elastography, acousti ... Full text Cite

Acoustic Radiation Force-Based Elasticity Imaging

Book section · January 1, 2015 8.1 Introduction Since ancient Egyptian medicine, manual palpation has been used to detect the size, location, and stiffness of superficial structures within the body [1]. By assessing the elasticity (i.e., stiffness) of structures compared with surroundin ... Full text Cite
