AI feeds off the massive data loads acquired by today’s devices, and then rapidly teaches itself to recognize and characterize disease.

The volume of data that today’s imaging modalities can collect in just a few minutes is vastly greater than the amount of data that a doctor can review in ten times as long. The systems summarize the data in reports, which have become increasingly sophisticated with integration of normative databases, but physicians still need to dedicate a great deal of their own time and judgment to diagnostic imagery. Which of the hundreds or thousands of images are the most important? What do they reveal?

Recent studies and guidelines have established the accuracy and reproducibility of shear wave elastography (SWE), an ultrasound modality that uses fast-moving shear waves to quantify tissue stiffness.1,2 These measurements provide clinically useful information. Obtaining that information quickly, accurately, and without discomfort generates clear benefits to the patient as well as the practice. But what about the economic impact?

At a high-volume breast imaging center, the addition of elastography helps avert both false positives and false negatives.

Ultrasound screening enables physicians to find masses that are not detected on mammography as well as gain more information on mammographically identified lesions with targeted imaging. Use of the modality has increased as physicians have learned more about the challenges of mammography in dense breasts. (...) The ultrasound system (Aixplorer, SuperSonic Imagine) uses a technology called real-time ShearWave Elastography (SWE), which displays a color-coded map with analysis of tissue stiffness. This information allows physicians to determine with confidence if a lesion is likely to be benign or malignant based on stiffness compared to background breast tissue when used in conjunction with morphologic analysis. Malignant lesions typically are stiff, whereas benign lesions tend to be soft.
