Trial summary

Ultrasonography in salivary gland has demonstrated its usefulness to diagnose and follow patients with Sjögren syndrome (pSS). More recently, a new imaging technique allows to study the parenchymal elasticity in salivary glands and could be a new tool to evaluate patients with sicca syndrome and pSS.
