 Ultrasonic elastography (real–time elastography, sonoelastography) is a new improvement of ultrasound technique and one of the various imaging modalities in the last few years which are being used for characterizing soft tissue masses of breast, thyroid, and lymph nodes. Musculoskeletal pathology was one of the early applications of sonoelastography, but the method is not yet standardized.
