Diagnostic Accuracy of Shear Wave Elastography in Predicting Malignant Origins of Pleural Effusions in Emergency Departments

Diagnostic Accuracy of Shear Wave Elastography in Predicting Malignant Origins of Pleural Effusions in Emergency Departments

<b>Objective</b>: Ultrasound is a valuable diagnostic tool in the diagnostic work-up of dyspnea and can identify even small pleural effusions. The incorporation of shear wave elastography (SWE) represents a possible tool in stratifying pleural effusions by the risk of underlying malignan...
