Abstract:
Ultrasound elastography is a non-invasive imaging technique that can measure tissue hardness and provide valuable information for diagnosis and treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma. It offers numerous advantages, including non-invasiveness, rapidity, safety, excellent repeatability, cost-effectiveness, and high patient acceptance. This article reviews the current research progress of ultrasound elastography in diagnosis, treatment evaluation, and prognosis prediction of hepatocellular carcinoma, aiming to help clinicians to tailor treatment strategy, reduce complications, and improve prognosis.
