Ultrasound elastography (EUS) is a method to assess the
mechanical properties of tissue, by applying stress and detecting
tissue displacement using ultrasound. There are several EUS
techniques used in clinical practice; strain (compression) EUS is
the most common technique that allows real-time visualisation of
the tissue. The importance of EUS in evaluation of musculoskeletal
system is increasing since it helps out early diagnosis of diseases
and guide the theraphy. This review includes the various EUS
techniques available for clinical use, presents the published reports
on musculoskeletal applications of EUS and discusses the technical
limitations and future perspectives of this method in the assessment
of the musculoskeletal system.
