Auto ElastQ can reduce the number of steps to acquire liver shear wave measurements by up to 29%.*
Elastography measurements should be made on frames that show stable and consistent shear wave propagation. Auto ElastQ identifies and selects these stable frames by comparing each frame to its neighbors and choosing only those frames that are very similar to adjacent frames and have a high percentage of fill inside the ElastQ imaging box.
Auto ElastQ analyzes the ElastQ image based on three quality metrics: smoothness within each local region, temporal stability of each region relative to the same regions in adjacent frames and the similarity of each pixel relatively to the rest of the pixels inside the box. This ensures that the region of interest is placed in a location that is representative of the majority of the pixels in the ElastQ imaging box.
The three quality metrics are combined into one composite map. The peak in this composite map, along with the confidence map, is used to select the region of interest for measurement.
