Figure 1 A patient with chronic pancreatitis showing heterogeneous soft tissue (green, yellow, and red), and interpreted as fibrosis or inflammation.
Figure 2 A patient with elasticity score 3 showing mixed hard and soft tissues (mixed colors) or a honeycombed elastography pattern, interpreted as indeterminate for malignancy.
Figure 3 A patient with autoimmune pancreatitis showing elasticity score 3.
Figure 4 A patient with advanced malignant lesions with necrotic areas (elasticity score 5) showing predominantly hard (blue) lesion with dispersed heterogenic soft (green) areas.
Figure 5 A patient with pancreatic head malignancy showing high stain ratio (25.
86).
Figure 6 A patient with pancreatic head malignancy showing very high stain ratio (45.
