Ex Vivo, Nodule-Based Shear Wave Elastography as a Possible Alternative to Intraoperative Frozen Section for Predicting Malignancy in Thyroid Nodules
Background and Objectives: Intraoperative frozen section (FS) examination is used to differentiate malignant from benign thyroid nodules but is limited by pathologist dependence, time, and cost. This study evaluated whether ex vivo shear wave elastography (SWE), applied separately to mapped thyroid nodules, could serve...
