Elastography is a medical imaging technique that measures the elasticity or stiffness of tissues, providing valuable information for diagnosing and monitoring various diseases, including liver fibrosis and cancer. By using ultrasound or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to assess tissue stiffness, elastography helps researchers and clinicians non-invasively evaluate tissue health, track disease progression, and develop more effective treatments, making it a significant area of research in the fields of medical imaging and diagnostics.
