Ultrasound Elastography in Diagnosing Patients With Kidney or Liver Solid Focal Lesions
Not Recruiting
Trial ID: NCT01908166
Purpose
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.
Official Title
