| Core Tip |
Two-dimensional shear wave elastography is the most widely used diagnostic tool for liver but has many ultrasound artifact-related problems. Our computer simulation model suggests the following ways to minimize them: (1) In patients with chronic hepatic disease, especially liver cirrhosis, measure shear wave values through the least irregular hepatic surface; (2) The most useful application in patients with focal lesions is detecting lesions poorly visible on B-mode ultrasound and differentiating true tumors from pseudo-tumors (e.g., irregular fatty change); and (3) Measurement of shear wave values in the area posterior to a focal lesion must be avoided. |
