The device uses shear wave elastography to assess soft liver tissue for stiffness — a sign of issues with the organ — without the need for a liver biopsy.
ElastQ offers a larger field of vision, color-coded quantitative assessment of the tissue stiffness, and real-tine feedback and intelligent analysis, according to a news release.
