Shear-Wave Elastography Using Commercially Available Ultrasound in a Mouse Model of Chronic Liver Disease

Elastography is currently used clinically to diagnose the degree of liver stiffness. We sought to develop a shear-wave elastography (SWE) measurement method using ultrasound in mice and to compare its results with those of other noninvasive tests for liver fibrosis. We divided male mice into three g...
