Stereoscopic images of breast tumors using 3D real-time tissue elastography

Conclusion In this study, the utility of 3D RTE images was comparable to that of ES on 2D RTE examination in differentiating malignant from benign breast tumors. In addition, utilizing 3D RTE images in cases with an ES of 3 on 2D RTE may increase the diagnostic accuracy for breast tumors.
