To determine normal values for acoustic radiation force impulse (ARFI) shear wave elastography of the Achilles tendon. Methods: Using the VTIQ mode with the Acuson S3000™ (Siemens Healthcare, Erlangen, Germany), we measured the shear wave velocity (SWV) in m/s and the diameter in mm of both Achilles tendons in 182 healthy volunteers. |
