Breast disease: clinical application of US elastography for diagnosis.
Ako Itoh,Ei Ueno,Eriko Tohno,Hiroshi Kamma,Hideto Takahashi,Tsuyoshi Shiina,Makoto Yamakawa,Takeshi Matsumura +7 more
TL;DR: For assessing breast lesions, US elastography with the proposed imaging classification, which was simple compared with that of the Breast Imaging Recording and Data System classification, had almost the same diagnostic performance as conventional US.
Journal ArticleDOI
The impact of real-time tissue elasticity imaging (elastography) on the detection of prostate cancer: clinicopathological analysis
Masakazu Tsutsumi,Tomoaki Miyagawa,Takeshi Matsumura,Natsui Kawazoe,Satoru Ishikawa,Tatsuro Shimokama,Tsuyoshi Shiina,Naoto Miyanaga,Hideyuki Akaza +8 more
TL;DR: Real-time elastography in conjunction with B-mode ultrasonography significantly improves the detection of prostate cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Real-time Elastography for the Diagnosis of Prostate Cancer: Evaluation of Elastographic Moving Images
Tomoaki Miyagawa,Masakazu Tsutsumi,Takeshi Matsumura,Natsui Kawazoe,Satoru Ishikawa,Tatsuro Shimokama,Naoto Miyanaga,Hideyuki Akaza +7 more
TL;DR: Elastography has a significantly higher sensitivity for the detection of prostate cancer than the conventionally used examinations including DRE and TRUS and simultaneous evaluation is possible while performing TRUS.

Method of displaying elastic image and diagnostic ultrasound system
TL;DR: In this paper, a method of displaying an elastic image includes the steps of measuring ultrasound cross-section data of a crosssection region of a subject by applying pressuring to the subject, determining a physical value correlating with the elasticity of tissue in the cross section region on the basis of the ultrasound crosssection data, generating the elastic image of the cross-sectional region on based on the physical value and displaying the image on a display device.
Journal ArticleDOI
Real-time balloon inflation elastography for prostate cancer detection and initial evaluation of clinicopathologic analysis.

TL;DR: The RBIE method improved the quality of elastographic moving images compared with the manual compression method and is concluded to be a promising method with which to detect prostate cancer.
