Optimal timing of computed tomography for assessing lymph nodes after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy for rectal cancer
Background: This study assessed the optimal timing of computed tomography for detection of metastatic disease in locoregional lymph nodes in patients with rectal cancer who have undergone chemoradiotherapy. Materials and Methods: This observational retrospective study was performed in a single institution. All patients with locally advanced rectal cancer treated with chemoradiotherapy, followed...
متن کاملtriplex ultrasonographic assessment of cervical lymph nodes
detection of lymph nodes (lns) involvement by various pathological processes has great therapeutic and prognostic implications. the purpose of this study was to evaluate the usefulness and accuracy of triplex sonography (gray scale, color mapping and spectral doppler) in differentiating benign from malignant cervical lns. we used triplex sonography to evaluate 120 lns in 50 patients. the gray s...
متن کاملassessment of the efficiency of s.p.g.c refineries using network dea
data envelopment analysis (dea) is a powerful tool for measuring relative efficiency of organizational units referred to as decision making units (dmus). in most cases dmus have network structures with internal linking activities. traditional dea models, however, consider dmus as black boxes with no regard to their linking activities and therefore do not provide decision makers with the reasons...
Initial results of imaging melanoma metastasis in resected human lymph nodes using photoacoustic computed tomography.
The pathological status of the sentinel lymph node is important for accurate melanoma staging, ascertaining prognosis and planning treatment. The standard procedure involves biopsy of the node and histopathological assessment of its status. Drawbacks of this examination include a finite sampling of the node with the likelihood of missing metastases, and a significant time-lag before histopathol...
متن کاملimaging of cervical lymph nodes
the imaging assessment of nodal disease can be challenging for the radiologist because there are multiple sites to review and differing opinions about criteria for abnormal nodes. the ability to accurately detect nodal metastases is improved with knowledge of the criteria for abnormal nodes, the nodal drainage patterns, and common imaging pitfalls. in this article, we introduce these basic conc...
