Feasibility of shear wave sonoelastography to detect endoleak and evaluate thrombus organization after endovascular repair of abdominal aortic aneurysm.

• Dynamic elastography with shear wave sonoelastography (SWS) detected 100% of endoleaks in abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) follow-up that were identified by a combination of CT angiography (CTA) and color Doppler ultrasound (CDUS). • Based on elasticity maps, SWS differentiated endoleaks from thrombi within the aneurysm sac (p < 0.001). • After 3-year follow-up, no new endoleaks were observed in SWS negative examinations.
