Predicting hepatocellular carcinoma: A new non-invasive model based on shear wave elastography

Figure 1 2D shear wave elastography was used to assess localized liver lesions in this study. A: Demonstrates tumors displayed in the green mass mode, indicating that 2D shear wave elastography’s accuracy meets the standard. For tumors displayed in speed mode, its velocity scale was configured within the range of 0.5 to 4.0 m/s; B: Shows two round areas of interest (ROIs) placed at the hardest part of the tumor and around the tumor, each with a diameter of 3 mm; C: The maximum elasticity of these ROIs, denoted as maximal elasticity, was recorded; D: Illustrates intracapsular vascular tumor emboli, highlighted in the image (HE × 100).
