Zusammenfassung

Purpose: The aim of this prospective study was to evaluate 2D-shear-wave-elastography (2D-SWE) for characterisation and differentiation of benign and malignant focal liver lesions (FLLs). Material & methods: Patients referred to our ultrasound unit for surveillance of chronic liver disease or work-up of incidentally detected FLLs were prospectively included. B-mode ultrasound and 2D-SWE (Aixplorer® France) was performed for one FLL in each patient. Liver histology obtained by biopsy and/or contrast-enhanced imaging was used as reference method. The Mann-Whitney and Kruskal-Wallis test was used to assess the stif…
