Can shear-wave elastography predict response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in women with invasive breast cancer?

BACKGROUND: Response of invasive breast cancer to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is variable, and prediction of response is imperfect. We aimed to ascertain whether tissue stiffness in breast cancers, as assessed by shear-wave elastography (SWE) before treatment, is associated with response. METHODS...
