    7     E lastography Imaging As an adjunct technique for clinical practice, the elastography determines if an area of tissue is hard or soft when compared with its surroundings. Furthermore, it provides an elastography image to discover tumors (stiffer than the surrounding tissue). The elastography image displays a range of map shades from the softest tissue in the image to the stiffest in a given field of view.

    7 Elastography Imaging − Ensure the compression is applied perpendicularly, and all parts of the target lesion are compressed uniformly. − Ensure the compression is a dynamic intermittent force, i.e. alternate tension with relaxation, which could keep the distorted tissue back to normal status. If the distorted tissue is not relaxed, the tissue cannot be distorted and the elastography imaging cannot be performed.
