Figure Lengend Snippet: In vivo ARFI image of the internal carotid artery from a symptomatic patient with matching micro-CT and histologic sections. B-mode (a) and ARFI peak displacement (b) images depict a significant stenosis due to plaque in both proximal and distal walls (white outline). Segmentations from a blinded reader (c) identify areas of increased peak displacement (indicating necrotic core, NC) in both the proximal and distal walls, covered by areas of low peak displacement (indicating fibrous cap, FC). The rest of the plaque has low displacement (indicating collagen deposition, COL). Micro-CT image and H&E and CME sections show an AHA type Va plaque with NC (red outline) and FC (yellow outline) in both proximal and distal walls (d). Calcification is observed in the distal wall (d, dashed magenta outline) coincident with the NC.

Article Title: Feasibility and Reliability of Quantifying Passive Muscle Stiffness in Young Children Using Shear Wave Ultrasound Elastography

doi: 10.7863/ultra.34.4.663

Figure Lengend Snippet: Representative 2-Dimensional Elastograms from Right Lateral Gastrocnemius of an 8-Year-Old Girl showing A) 20° plantar flexion, B) 10° plantar flexion, C) 0° plantar flexion, and D) 10° dorsiflexion. The colored box, located over the lateral gastrocnemius muscle (1), represents the area of measurement; the soleus muscle (2) is also shown. The colored bar on the right represents shear-wave speed: purple indicates tissue with low shear-wave speed (softer tissue) and red indicates tissue with high shear-wave speed (more stiff tissue).

doi:

Figure Lengend Snippet: Invasive ductal carcinoma seen on US (A) as a BIRADS 4c hypoechoic mass (arrows). A high quality image map of VTIQ shows homogeneous green picture of the lesion (arrows) (B). In VTIQ shear wave velocity mode (C), SWV values in the lesion (arrows) are measured and repeated for seven times. The highest and lowest measurements are recorded as 6.43 m/s and 3.37 m/s; the median value is 4.5 m/s; and the mean SWV is calculated to be 4.75 m/s. The pathological examination confirms the diagnosis of invasive ductal breast carcinoma (Hematoxylin-eosin stain, ×100) (D).
