Fig. 3

a B-mode, HDMI image and SWE map of a breast tumor of a 40-year-old woman with invasive ductal carcinoma. The HDMI image along with the morphological parameters is suggestive of malignancy. SWE map and velocity metrics on the side panel shows low stiffness, incorrectly suggesting the lesion is benign. b B-mode, HDMI image and SWE map of a pseudoangiomatous stromal hyperplasia of a 24-year-old woman. HDMI image shows a few microvessels along with the morphological parameters, shown on the side panel, and is suggestive of benign mass. SWE map and velocity metrics on the side panel incorrectly suggest the mass to be malignant. The dashed-line boundaries in the B-mode and HDMI images represent the lesion border after 2 mm dilatation. HDMI: high-definition microvasculature imaging. SWE: shear wave elastography
