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 کاملComputed tomography of the cervical lymph nodes: use of intravenous contrast enhancement.
Intravenous contrast administration increases the sensitivity of computed tomographic scanning for enlarged cervical lymph nodes but requires a detailed knowledge of neck anatomy, especially in order to distinguish certain normal vessels from involved nodal groups. Along the collar chain, relations between the parotid and submandibular salivary glands and the posterior and anterior facial veins...
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...
متن کاملComputed tomography in the management of cervical lymph node pathology.
Computerised tomography (CT) is a useful adjunct in the diagnosis of cervical pathology in head and neck carcinoma. However, different criteria used in CT analysis make the comparison of outcome studies difficult. This study compares two different CT criteria (two different lymph node sizes) for detection of cervical lymph node pathology for head and neck tumours in the same patient population....
متن کاملBone marrow and cervical lymph nodes metastases as prodromal manifestations of malignant melanoma in a child
Malignant melanoma in children is rare. It can arise from congenital melanocytic nevi. In pediatric patients, diagnosis of melanoma is difficult and challenging because the physicians have a low index of suspicion. Marrow metastasis in malignant melanoma especially in children is extremely uncommon. Here, the authors reported a 5 year old girl who was presented with a 4 month history of pelvic ...
