Ultrasound Elastography of Salivary Glands (ELSA)

July 8, 2019 updated by: University Hospital, Brest

Elastometry of the Salivary Glands in Sicca Syndrome

Ultrasonography in salivary gland has demonstrated its usefulness to diagnose and follow patients with Sjögren syndrome (pSS). More recently, a new imaging technique allows to study the parenchymal elasticity in salivary glands and could be a new tool to evaluate patients with sicca syndrome and pSS.
