Tissue Doppler and Strain Imaging for Evaluating Tissue Elasticity of Breast Lesions

Evaluation of elasticity based on the quantification of strain factors improves characterization of focal breast lesions, especially the differentiation of BI-RADS 3 and 4 lesions. Surprisingly, significant results in characterizing breast lesions were obtained with the simple technique of TDI, showing a lower tissue displacement in malignant cases.
