Using Renal Elastography Measurements for Evaluation of Glomerulonephritis Patients

"Renal shear wave elastography is a non-invasive ultrasound elastography technique that allows measurements of tissue stiffness. It provides real-time measurements of shear wave velocity (SWV) generated with an acoustic impulse, thereby providing quantitative information about tissue elasticity. Harder tissues have been shown to have higher SWV .~Renal shear wave elastography will be done to both groups"
