2.  Tap [Elasto]→[STQ] on the touch screen. Or press the user-defined <STQ> key (set the user-defined 
key via [Preset]→[System]→[iConsole&Footswitch]/[Key Board]) to enter the STQ mode. 
 
3.  Adjust the ROI based on the lesion size and the position. 
4.  Press <Update> to generate the acquisition. Place the probe still with stable force (not pressing, 
sweeping or moving the probe) to acquire the image. Adjust the B image parameters to obtain a 
premium image.   
The stress curve shows at the bottom of the screen after entering the real-time acquisition.   
The following indices display besides end of the curve in real-time: 
  Elasto modulus inside the ROI of the current frame; 
  The mean value, maximum value, minimum value, SD value of shear velocity; 
  Depth value of the active elasto modulus. 
 
5.  Freeze the image, and replay the image if necessary. 
6.  Save the single-frame and multi-frame image. 
7.  Reacquire the image if necessary.
