Description
3T MRI ELASTOGRAPHY is an innovative imaging technique that combines the high-resolution capabilities of 3 Tesla MRI with mechanical waves to assess tissue stiffness. This non-invasive procedure is particularly valuable in evaluating liver health, as it can accurately measure the degree of fibrosis without the need for a biopsy. During the exam, low-frequency sound waves are applied to the body, and the MRI captures the resulting tissue movement. The data is then processed to create detailed maps of tissue elasticity. While primarily used for liver assessment, MRI Elastography also has applications in studying other organs and soft tissues, potentially aiding in the diagnosis of various pathological conditions characterized by changes in tissue stiffness.
