Ultrasound Elastography in the Differential Diagnosis of Benign and Malignant Cervical Lesions

Abstract

Ultrasound elastography is a promising technique that is easy and rapid to perform and can help identify cervical lesions that are likely to be malignant. It is obvious that the strain ratio yielded better results than the elasticity score. Both methods are semiquantitative, but quantification of the strain ratio is finer than that of the elasticity score.
