This corrects the article "Thrombus stiffness as an independent predictor of endovascular treatment success in hemodialysis fistulas: a study using ultrasound elastography" on page 153. Ultrasonography 2025;44:153-159
In the article entitled "Thrombus stiffness as an independent predictor of endovascular treatment success in hemodialysis fistulas: a study using ultrasound elastography" [Ultrasonography 2025;44:153-159] by Zirek et al., the number of E1 and E2 in the bottom-left box of Fig.1A were inadvertently reversed. This error has been corrected.
Strain elastography (A) and elastography map (B) images of a patient with hemodialysis arteriovenous fistula dysfunction due to thrombosis.The surrounding soft tissue is identified as the reference point and marked with the E1 region of interest (ROI) circle. The thrombus within the vascular lumen was identified with the E2 ROI circle, and the ratio to the reference tissue (E1) was calculated by the device using the formula strain ratio=E2/E1. In this shared case, the strain ratio was calculated as 1.7, and the endovascular treatment performed was unsuccessful.
