Sonoelastography of the Shoulder: A Narrative Review.

Sonoelastography is a relatively new non-invasive imaging tool to assess the qualitative and quantitative biomechanical properties of various tissues. Two types of sonoelastography (SE) are commonly explored: strain and shear wave. Sonoelastography can be used in multiple medical subspecialties to assess pathological tissular changes by obtaining mechanical properties, shear wave speed, and strain ratio data.
