elasticity imaging techniques

Preferred Label : elasticity imaging techniques;

MeSH definition : Non-invasive imaging methods based on the mechanical response of an object to a vibrational or impulsive force. It is used for determining the viscoelastic properties of tissue, and thereby differentiating soft from hard inclusions in tissue such as microcalcifications, and some cancer lesions. Most techniques use ultrasound to create the images - eliciting the response with an ultrasonic radiation force and/or recording displacements of the tissue by Doppler ultrasonography.;

MeSH synonym : tissue elasticity imagings; elasticity imagings, tissue; imaging techniques, elasticity; imaging, tissue elasticity; elasticity imaging technique; imaging technique, elasticity; technique, elasticity imaging; techniques, elasticity imaging; tissue elasticity imaging; elasticity imaging, tissue; imagings, tissue elasticity; elastography; elastographies;

MeSH hyponym : Vibro-Acoustography; sonoelastography; magnetic resonance elastography; acoustic radiation force impulse imaging; Vibro Acoustography; Vibro-Acoustographies; Elastographies, Magnetic Resonance; Elastography, Magnetic Resonance; Magnetic Resonance Elastographies; Resonance Elastographies, Magnetic; Resonance Elastography, Magnetic; Sonoelastographies; ARFI Imaging; ARFI Imagings; Imaging, ARFI; Imagings, ARFI;

Related MeSH term : elastograms; Elastogram;

MeSH annotation : coordinate with specific technique for elasticity imaging techniques other than ultrasonography;
