Figure 8.

Spuriously elevated velocity measurement in the same healthy 37-year-old female volunteer as in Figure 7. Point shear-wave elastographic image shows sample area (circle) with a velocity measurement of 2.32 m/sec. This high velocity measurement is due to the inclusion of gallbladder wall in the ROI. The gallbladder wall is stiffer, which results in a falsely elevated velocity measurement.
