Scientific title | |
Study acronym | Ultrasound Elastography |
Study objectives | Ultrasound elastography is a non-invasive ultrasound method which evaluates the deformability of a structure. The principle of elastography is the utilisation of tissue compression producing varying levels of strain within different tissue types. 'Strain images' obtained can then be analysed to assess the mechanical properties of tissues and infer their size and nature. |
Ethics approval(s) | MREC approved (ref: 07/H0306/90) |
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Topic: Generic Health Relevance and Cross Cutting Themes; Subtopic: Generic Health Relevance (all Subtopics); Disease: Other |
Intervention | Ultrasound elastography |
Intervention type | Procedure/Surgery |
Primary outcome measure | Assess the ability to obtain strain images from different tissues of the body, e.g. abdomen, pelvis, head and neck, breast, testes and soft tissues |
Secondary outcome measures | Evaluate accuracy of ultrasound elastography compared with standard ultrasound |
