Question about analysis with ImageJ of breast US and Shear Wave Elastography images of the brast

[antonio masciotra]

I'm using ImageJ for the analysis of images RGB of breast cancer and fibroadenoma.
So I've used TIFF images on which I've traced the ROI and did performe the analysis usong both the tool Histogram and the tool  Color Histogram.
In the results obtained are shown :
1) Mean Value
2) Max value
3) Min value
4) Standard Deviation
5) Mode.
Wish someone could explain in simple terms what is the practical meaning of 'Mode'.
I attach two images :
1) the first showing the differences measured in kPas in the stiffness between fat, fibrous tissue, fibroadenoma and cancer
2) the second showing the results of the analysis I did both on B images and Elastography images.
Thx and best regards to all from Italy.

Dear Peter,
thx so much for your feedback.
I'm a clinical radiologist and I've treasured your information.
So I've gone ahead to the  slides you can see attached.
As I've formerly specified, I've worked on TIFF images obtained on native Jpeg.
Do you think that the results of ImageJ analysis have o been the same aso working on Jpeg original or on DICOM files?
Do you have experine in applications like the one I'm working on in US and Sonoelastography images?
Thx very much again.
Best regards.
Antonio
