ELASTOGRAPHY MEASUREMENT SYSTEM AND METHOD

摘要

The present invention relates to an ultrasound elastography system (10) for providing an elastography measurement result of an anatomical site (32) a corresponding method. The system (10) is configured to visualize a suitability for shear wave elastography of the region of interest (33) to the user within the ultrasound image (52) and/or to recommend an elastography acquisition plane (48, 50) for conducting shear wave elastography to the user. Bythis, proper selection of a location for an elastography measurement may be supported.
