Clinical Trial: Ultrasound Elastography in Diagnosing Patients With Kidney or Liver Solid Focal Lesions
Study Status: Active, not recruiting
Recruit Status: Active, not recruiting
Study Type: Interventional
Official Title: US Elastography for Characterizing Focal Lesions in the Liver and Kidney
Brief Summary: This clinical trial studies ultrasound elastography in diagnosing patients with kidney or liver solid focal lesions. New diagnostic procedures, such as ultrasound elastography, may be a less invasive way to check for kidney or liver solid focal lesions.
Detailed Summary:
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the utility of ultrasound elastography in correlation with kidney or liver biopsy or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or computed tomography (CT) results.
OUTLINE:
Patients undergo ultrasound elastography.
Sponsor: Stanford University
Current Primary Outcome: Strain ratio for all lesions measured by comparing the lesion to the adjacent normal tissue [ Time Frame: Up to 36 months ]
Original Primary Outcome: Same as current
Current Secondary Outcome:
