Abstract :

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 east, thyroid, and lymph nodes. Musculoskeletal pathology was one of the early applications of sonoelastography, but the method is not yet standardized. Other new horizons of applications include Liver, Prostate, obstetrics and gynaecology. We are presenting a pictorial essay of elastography cases in Obstetrics and gynaecology seen in our institution.
