Objectives To estimate the technical performance of acoustic radiation force impulse (ARFI)
imaging (two‐dimensional shear wave elastography [2D‐SWE] and point shear wave …

Background: We require an quantitative imaging technique for the diagnosis and
assessment of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Renal elastography has been widely used in …

Background Ultrasound elastography has been suggested for assessing organ fibrosis.
Objective To study the feasibility of shear-wave elastography in children with kidney disease …

Introduction: There is currently a lack of published data on kidney elasticity and viscosity.
Non-invasive techniques, such as two-dimensional shear-wave elastography (2D-SWE …

Purpose Non‐invasive tests are increasingly demanded for diagnosing and prognostication
of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Shear‐wave elastography (SWE), an emerging technique …

Purpose The aim of this study was to compare the acoustic radiation force impulse
elastography (ARFI-e) values of the renal cortical parenchyma in children with acute …

Ultrasound is one of the most important imaging modalities in pediatric imaging because of
its accessibility, portability, lack of ionizing radiation, and ability to generally perform …

Purpose To explore the diagnostic performance of renal cortical elasticity expressed by
Young's modulus (YM) using the supersonic shear wave imaging (SSI) technique in …

Background The role of shear wave elastography (SWE) in assessing renal parenchymal
stiffness in children with nephropathy is obscure. This systematic review and meta‐analysis …

Aim: To determine the early effects of excess weight on renal cortical stiffness in children
and adolescents using point shear wave elastography (pSWE). Materials and methods: One …
