High variability in stiffness (5 kPa to 173 kPa) and Standard deviation (3,3 kPa to 14,2 kPa)

High variability in stiffness (30 kPa to 231 kPa) and Standard deviation (8,2 kPa to 37,7 kPa)

Hyperechoic areas are far stiffer than hypoechoic areas

Same grade of hypoechogenicity have very different stiffness

(11 to 88 kPa)
