Liver elastography with virtual touch quantification (VTQ) measures the velocity of the shear wave generated by a short-duration acoustic force impulse, with values expressed in units of velocity (m/s). VTQ can evaluate right or left hepatic lobes separately. VTQ might be appropriate for the evaluation of future remnant liver after hepatectomy.
