ElastographyElastography techniques for non-invasive tissue assessment

Ultrasound elastography provides a cost-effective method to non-invasively monitor variations in tissue stiffness, known to correlate with certain disease states and therapeutic response.

MR Elastography adds another dimension to multiparametric, 3D volumetric liver imaging: by applying mechanical waves. MRI can be used to non-invasively assess whole organ variations in tissue stiffness.
