ARFI shear-wave elastography with simulation of acute urinary tract obstruction in an ex vivo porcine kidney model

PURPOSE:We aimed to evaluate if acoustic radiation force impulse (ARFI) shear-wave elastography (SWE) can detect change of parenchymal stiffness in an ex vivo porcine kidney model of acute urinary tract obstruction.METHODS:A total of 20 heparinized pig kidneys were investigated at 10 intrapelvic hyd...
