Breast elastography – new diagnostic quality or technologic bubble

Breast elastography consist of static and dynamic method. The paper deals with morphologic characterization of breast lesions and typical symptoms like: mass ventralisation, size change, switch-off sign and posterior boundary imaging. The recent studies of dynamic elastography implementation into br...
