Summary

Human soft tissue such as breast tissue has viscoelasticity property. However, most ultrasound has only been measured for elasticity and viscosity has been neglected. Shear wave elastography (SWE) is a ultrasound technique that quantifies tissue elasticity. Shear wave dispersion (SWD) imaging is a newly developed ultrasound technique that evaluates the dispersion slope of shear waves, which is related to the viscosity of biological tissues. The goal of this retrospective study was to compare diagnostic performance between SWE and SWD to distinguish benign from malignant breast masses and to investigate additional role of SWD. Using histological diagnosis of breast lesions as a standard reference, quantitative indices of SWE and SWD were evaluated to diagnose breast cancer, and the diagnostic performance of SWE and SWD was compared.
