Elastography tracks stiffness changes in breast implants
Shear wave elastography (SWE) could be used as an indicator of the risk of breast implant rupture, a study published January 20 in the Journal of Biomechanics.
Researchers led by Laetitia Ruffenach, MD, from the University of Strasbourg in France reported that elastography can visualize breast implant stiffness as implants degrade over time, measuring rupture risk and helping diagnose replacements for implants.
“By observing the consequences of the physical-chemical mechanisms at work within patients, this study shows that ultrasound elastography could be used in vivo as a quantitative indicator of the risk of breast i...
