Summary

The diagnosis of rectal lesions is a challenging task, and the accuracy of the primary staging is important preoperatively. A relatively novel technology makes it possible to measure the tissue stiffness during endorectal ultrasonography.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic value of Shear Wave Elastography (SWE). The hypothesis is that the tissue stiffness is higher in malignant tissue than in benign lesions.
