Abstract

UltrasoundElastography/Elastosonography is the non-invasive method of qualitative and quantitative evaluation of strain and elastic modulus distribution in soft tissues. One of the main benefits of ultrasonography is that it is a straightforward, less intrusive procedure. A general understanding of the underlying principles could benefit the entire process of data acquisition and interpretation, enhancing the USE reproducibility. The present review will highlight the topographies of the novel method and it is used in dentistry.
