Elastography for the pancreas: Current status and future perspective

Figure 3 Quantitative diagnosis in US-Real-time Tissue Elastography^TM. A hypoechoic tumor is seen at the pancreatic tail in B-mode (right). Region of interest (ROI) [A] is set on the tumor, and ROI [B] is set on read area around the pancreas (left). By setting ROI [A] and [B], strain [A], strain [B], and strain ration [B/A] were calculated automatically and displayed at the bottom of the screen (left).
