Fibroadenoma in a female patient. The Emax and Emin values of the breast lesion were 67.47 kPa and 5.33 kPa, respectively. a: SWE quality control with no obvious artifacts; b: The shell included 1 mm peripheral tissue around the breast lesion contour on the SWE image. The values of Emax-1shell, Emean-1shell and Emin-1shell were 58.06 kPa, 19.39 kPa and 6.62 kPa; c: The shell included 2 mm peripheral tissue around the breast lesion on the SWE image. The values of Emax-2shell, Emean-2shell and Emin-2shell were 59.14 kPa, 19.42 kPa, and 4.5 kPa; c: The shell included 3 mm peripheral tissue around the breast lesion on the SWE image. The values of Emax-3shell, Emean-3shell, and Emin-3shell were 59.14 kPa, 18.34 kPa, and 4.47 kPa, respectively
