A newly developed magnetic resonance imaging technique can directly visualize propagating acoustic strain waves in tissue-like materials [1, 2]. By estimating the local wavelength of the acoustic wave pattern, quantitative values of shear modulus can be calculated and images generated that depict tissue elasticity or stiffness. Since tumors are significantly stiffer than normal tissue (the basis of...

SummaryBackground Liver stiffness assessed using transient elastography is described as a potential risk factor for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in cirrhosis. However, the strict assessment of hepatic parenchymal areas uninvolved with HCC has not been investigated.Aim To determine if liver stiffness of nonmalignant hepatic parenchyma using magnetic resonance...
