Breast ultrasound with elastography.
Contrast applications, Elastography(iU22 system only), Supports biopsy guide capabilities.
The other notable advancement in the ultrasound technology is the shear wave Elastography.
The two most commonly used methods are strain elastography and shear wave elastography.
The ACUSON S2000 system of SIEMENS tops of modern ultrasound andensures inter alia a possibility:• elastography.
Elastography permits the assessment of the elasticity or hardness of the tissues that are examined during the ultrasound scanning.
It has modern state-of-the-art medical equipment, with high definition and resolution ultrasound scan,triplex and elastography.
Investigation of the role of Elastography Imaging, a novel promising ultrasound technique yet not fully explored and established.
Imaging for tissue elasticity, e.g. Fibroscan,acoustic radiation force impulse(ARFI), or magnetic resonance(MR) elastography.
Cancer presents in general a higher hardness,therefore elastography can provide the necessary information, so that biopsies are limited only to the ones that are absolutely necessary.
After the visit the doctor may prescribe further examinations such as laboratory analysis,bacteriological cultures, elastography, and serological tests.
Also, there is the possibility of further testing by Strain& Shear Wave Elastography to assess possible malignancies of breast, thyroid, liver, and prostate structures and lesions.
A workshop with the Mindray M9 Portable Ultrasound will be held, on the practical application of ultrasounds, their new applications,and especially on elastography will be held.
The ability to study the vasculature of breast lesions,the use of elastography, the three-dimensional images provided by the 3D ultrasound youngsters can make important diagnostic.
The use of elastography in superficial organs mainly, such the thyroid, breast and prostate, can help determine whether a lesion is soft or hard and proceed with the histological examination accordingly.
Thus, atypia detection activates early investigation and/ or preventive treatment, such as diagnostic or localising digital mammography,ultrasound elastography, tomosynthesis, magnetic resonance imaging, gene control, chemoprophylaxis etc.
A new type of device, the FibroScan(transient elastography), uses elastic waves to determine liver stiffness which theoretically can be converted into a liver score based on the METAVIR scale.
The Center is equipped with a Hologic Selenia Digital Mammography System, which emits the lowest radiation dose possible comparedto other digital devices; an Aixplorer Supersonic Imagine breast ultrasound system with ShearWave Elastography technology; and a Breast MRI system.
The Aixplorer Ultimate ultrasound unique capabilities of Shearwave Elastography, are going to be presented in the workshop which will be held on 29/9/2018, during the ultrasound- elastography workshop.
At the same time, it features state-of-the-art synchronous imaging of the ultrasound image in real time with CT scan, MRI, PET-CT andprevious ultrasound examinations allowing volumetric navigation- Fusion technique- in these sequences as well as a combination of contrasting and elastography techniques.
The purpose of this action is the continuous provision of liver elastography screening via the method of Fibroscan, to beneficiaries that have been diagnosed with liver diseases across Greece through collaboration with hepatology clinics and doctors of public hospitals.
Advice on monitoring liver function(measuring hepatic enzymes and total bilirubin) before and during treatment with Lojuxta and routine screening to detect presence of steatohepatitis and hepatic fibrosis including specific details of the screening tests at baseline and annually as follows:- Imaging for tissue elasticity, e.g. Fibroscan,acoustic radiation force impulse(ARFI), or magnetic resonance(MR) elastography;- Measurement of biomarkers and/or scoring methods.
