Abstract Ultrasonic elastography (UE) is an imaging technique sensitive to tissue elasticity. According to the principle, UE can be divided into two types of elastic imaging: strain-type and shear-wave. The strain-type elastography uses the probe to compress the tissue to make the tissue deform, and converts the degree of deformation into color image. The non-determinable factors of external force make the repeatability become worse and strain-type elastography is qualitative or semi-quantitative. The shear-wave elastography does not need to apply pressure to the tissue. The acoustic radiation force is used to propagate and deform the tissue, and then the shear wave velocity or young′s modulus of the corresponding tissue is calculated. The repeatability is good, realizing real-time visualization of dual-mode imaging and quantitative reaction of tissue hardness. With the development of ultrasound elastography in evaluating the postoperative status of renal transplantation, some achievements have been made in renal fibrosis, renal function and acute and chronic rejection. With fibrosis of renal parenchyma and renal function impairment, renal tissue elasticity index increased gradually, and studies have found that in transplant renal pathology reaction than conventional color doppler and renal function index sensitive, due to the complex structure of kidney, internal structure distribution. The application of ultrasound elastography to kidney transplantation is affected by many factors, and further research is needed to make it play a greater role in the clinical diagnosis and treatment of kidney transplantation.
