Prostate Shear Wave Elastography (SWE) is a cutting-edge, non-invasive imaging technique designed to assess the stiffness and vascular characteristics of the prostate. When combined with Colour Doppler, this multi-parametric approach significantly enhances the detection and characterization of prostate conditions — particularly prostate cancer, one of the most common cancers among men worldwide.
Shear waves are generated within the prostate gland and their speed — which increases in stiffer (potentially cancerous) tissues — is measured and displayed as a colour-coded map (elastogram). Colour Doppler simultaneously evaluates blood flow, further improving diagnostic precision.
If you’re experiencing urinary symptoms, elevated PSA, or simply prioritising proactive men’s health screening, this advanced ultrasound scan provides a thorough and accurate assessment of your prostate.
