摘要: 脊柱疾病一直是医学界备受关注的领域,其中包括脊柱侧凸、骨折和椎间盘突出等多种疾病。传统影像技术在脊柱疾病的诊断和治疗中发挥着重要作用,然而其对于组织弹性特性的捕捉能力有限。近年来,剪切波超声弹性成像(Shear Wave Elastography, SWE)技术作为一种新兴的医学影像技术,因其能够提供组织弹性信息和对组织微观结构的敏感性而备受关注。在脊柱领域,这项技术可能为我们提供更加全面的诊断信息,并且对于指导手术和监测治疗效果也具有参考价值。因此,本综述旨在通过对剪切波弹性成像技术在脊柱疾病中的应用和进展进行综合分析,探讨其在脊柱疾病领域的作用。
Abstract: Spinal disorders have long been an area of concern in the medical community, including conditions as diverse as scoliosis, fractures, and disc herniations. Traditional imaging techniques play an important role in the diagnosis and treatment of spinal diseases, but their ability to capture tissue elastic features is limited. In recent years, shear wave elastography (SWE), as a new medical imaging technology, has attracted much attention because of its sensitivity to tissue elastic information and tissue microstructure. In the field of spinal diseases, this technology can provide us with more comprehensive diagnostic information and can also be useful for guiding surgery and monitoring outcomes. Therefore, this review aims to discuss the role of shear-wave elastography in the field of spinal diseases through a comprehensive analysis of its application and progress in spinal diseases.
