Does standoff material affect acoustic radiation force impulse elastography? A preclinical study of a modified elastography phantom

Purpose This study was conducted to determine the influence of standoff material on acoustic radiation force impulse (ARFI) measurements in an elasticity phantom by using two different probes. Methods Using ARFI elastography, 10 observers measured the shear wave velocity (SWV, m/sec) in different le...
