Fig. 1From: Ultrasound elastography in children — nice to have for scientific studies or arrived in clinical routine?Various methods of ultrasound elastography. All use the measurement of deformation in response to an applied stress or force given by compression or creation of a push pulse (RTE, real-time elastography; TE, transient elastography; ARFI, acoustic radiation force impulse; SWE, shear wave elastography; IQ, image quantification; ROI, region of interest; 2D, two dimensional; GE US, general electric ultrasound; Q, quantification)Back to article page
