Commonly asked questions

Elastography tests are typically requested by healthcare providers, including radiologists, hepatologists, oncologists, and other specialists, based on the patient's medical condition and symptoms.

Elastography tests are used when there is a need to assess tissue stiffness or elasticity for diagnostic purposes. They are commonly used for liver fibrosis staging, breast lesion characterization, thyroid nodule evaluation, and more.

Elastography tests involve applying mechanical waves to tissues and imaging the resulting tissue deformation to assess stiffness. Depending on the clinical need, the technique can be performed using ultrasound, MRI, or other imaging modalities.
