Enlargement of a lymph node of the neck may appear as a manifestation of a variety of diseases, such as specific or nonspecific inflammation of head and neck organs, metastases, and hemoblastoses. The principle ultrasound signs of lymph node differentiation are the size, shape, structure, and ...
it will result in some degree of injury, and may even leave a scar. This is especially true for lymph nodes in the neck; a scar on the neck can still affect one's appearance.When
Imaging of lymph node metastases in the neck can have two major indications: (1) prognosis and assisting with choice of treatment; (2) staging and detection of clinically occult metastases in different levels of the neck. Both indications are discussed. The role and limitations of US and US-...
Lymph nodes.An enlarged cervical lymph node is the most commonly encountered neck lump. The role of ultrasound is to differentiate pathological nodes (e.g., metastases, lymphoma, tuberculous lymphadenitis) from normal/reactive nodes (Figure 1). Different ultrasound criteria have been established to d...
The course aims to teach head and neck ultrasound and ultrasound-guided interventions to ENT/head and neck surgeons, endocrinologists, radiologists, and other related healthcare providers.
Because a preoperative surgical ultrasound can detect suspicious lymph nodes that could result in ultimately altering surgical management, we chose to study which variables were predictive of this change.关键词: preoperative neck ultrasound suspicious or indeterminate thyroid nodule papillary thyroid cancer ...

It is now being used to confirm the ultrasound diagnosis of parathyroid adenoma by measuring parathyroid hormone obtained with the needle placed in the lesion under ultrasound guidance. Likewise, non-palpable lymph nodes in the neck discovered by ultrasound and suspected of having metastatic carcinoma ...
