Shear Wave Elastography Assessment of Carotid Plaque Stiffness: In Vitro Reproducibility Study

Abstract This study assessed inter- and intra-observer reproducibility of shear wave elastography (SWE) measurements in vessel phantoms simulating soft and hard carotid plaque under steady and pulsatile flow conditions. Supersonic SWE was used to acquire cine-loop data and quantify Young’s modulus i...
