Figure 2 Effects of anisotropy.
A: Distance 1.7 cm, SWV = 3.55 m/s; B: Distance 2.2 cm, SWV = 2.32 m/s. The SWV difference between the two measurements is greater than what is expected considering only the source-to-target distance. This is an effect of renal anisotropy and a consequence of an incorrect orientation of the ROI. SWV: Shear wave velocity; ROI: Region of interest.
