- Abstract
It is commonly known that oncological diseases occupy second place in the structure of causes of death in the adult population after cardiovascular diseases. Prostate cancer is the second most common malignant tumor among men. Thus, timely diagnostics of this disease is of great importance. Despite the large number of screening tests, the development of new visualization techniques and utilization of invasive procedures, such as biopsy, prostate cancer remains difficult for early diagnosis. The shear wave elastography should become an additional method of obtaining images of the prostate, auxillary to traditional transrectal ultrasound and MRI.
