 Ultrasonic elastography (real–time elastography, sonoelastography) is a new ultrasound technique and one of the various imaging modalities in the last few years which are being used for characterizing soft tissue lesions of breast, thyroid, and lymph nodes. Musculoskeletal pathology was one of the early applications of sonoelastography, but the method is not yet standardized. Other new areas of applications include Liver, Prostate, obstetrics and gynaecology. We are presenting a pictorial essay of elastography cases of breast seen in our institution.
