Fig. 2From: Comparison of sound touch elastography and quantification for assessing the renal pathologic changes in patients with proteinuriaA 58-year-old man underwent renal biopsy and shear wave elastography of his right kidney. a The pathological examination revealed IgA nephropathy (H&E staining); b STE examination tested his Emax (18.69 kPa) and Emean (13.66 kPa) values; c STQ examination tested his Emax (16.09 kPa) and Emean (11.67 kPa) values.
