Scanning
When using ElastoScan, place a probe onto the surface of an area to observe and apply periodic
compression to it. The compression should be adjusted so that the strain stays within 3 - 5 %.

Breast
A breast is a complex organ that consists of latecomer, laticifer, glandular mammaria, fatty tissues,
fibrous tissues and chest muscles. Moving a probe along vertically causes unintended movements
of the tissues. To observe a lesion in ElastoScan Mode (E Mode), it is recommended to minimize
lateral or other directional movements including vertical movement of tissues along the axis.
