Mediastinal Lymph Node Stations
Lymph node station labelingmulti-atlas label fusionStation-labeling of mediastinal lymph nodes is typically performed to identify the location of enlarged nodes for cancer staging. Stations are usually assigned in clinical radiology practice manually by qualitative visual assessment on CT scans, which is...
Full minimally invasive evaluation of all lymph node stations (with the exception of station 6) is now possible with the advent of endobronchial and trans -esophageal endoscopic ultrasound. Endoscopic ultrasound fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) allows sampling of mediastinal lymph nodes relevant to ...
The most current map of intrathoracic lymph nodes is the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) map. The IASLC Atlas supersedes all previous schema and reconciles discrepancies among older popular systems such as the Naruke lymph node classification and the Mountain-Dresler mo...
some patients have bulky N2 disease involving more than 1 N2 lymph node station, and others have only microscopic disease found at the time of resection. The survival of these 2 groups of patients is quite different, and thus, perhaps their treatment strategies, including the timing of surgical...

Mediastinal lymph node station maps are intended to facilitate nodal staging in patients with non-small cell lung cancer. These maps have been revised over time and the International Association for Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) map is the latest rendition. This article illustrates the imaging ...
