“…SWE has been well regarded for its ability to assess liver fibrosis . SWE has also been used to assess fibrotic stiffness in the thyroid region . The SWVs of nodules classified as VTI scores 3 and 4 were significantly higher than those of VTI scores 1 and 2.…”

“…SWE has been used to evaluate the stiffness of liver and thyroid tissues and is a well-established technique for measuring liver elasticity. [11][12][13][14][15][16][17] Several studies have confirmed that the SWV reflects the thyroid tissue stiffness, and that the SWE is useful for differentiating malignant from benign thyroid nodules. [13][14][15][16] However, the correlation between strain imaging (ARFI imaging and strain elastography [SE]) and SWE remains unclear.…”

“…The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value and diagnostic accuracy were 70.0%, 84.3%, 28.6%, 96.1%. and 65.6%, respectively [49] (fig 9, fig 10). The most accurate SWE cut-off, 34.5 kPa for a 2 mm region of interest, achieved 76.9% sensitivity and 71.1% specificity for discriminating papillary cancer from benign nodules [50].…”
