Quantitative Analysis of Enlarged Cervical Lymph Nodes with Ultrasound Elastography.
UNLABELLED PURPSOE: To investigate the diagnostic value of quantitative analysis of a tissue diffusion and virtual touch tissue imaging quantification (VTIQ) technique with acoustic radiation force impulse (ARFI) elastography for assessing enlarged cervical lymph nodes. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifty-six enlarged cervical lymph nodes confirmed by pathologic diagnoses were covered in the study. A...
متن کاملUltrasound elastography for evaluation of cervical lymph nodes
Ultrasound (US) elastography has been introduced as a noninvasive imaging technique for evaluating cervical lymph nodes. US elastography techniques include strain elastography and shear wave-based elastography. The application of this technique is based on the fact that stiff tissues tend to deform less and show less strain than compliant tissues when the same force is applied. In general, meta...
متن کاملUltrasound of malignant cervical lymph nodes
Malignant lymph nodes in the neck include metastases and lymphoma. Cervical nodal metastases are common in patients with head and neck cancers, and their assessment is important as it affects treatment planning and prognosis. Neck nodes are also a common site of lymphomatous involvement and an accurate diagnosis is essential as its treatment differs from other causes of neck lymphadenopathy. On...

متن کاملEndobronchial Ultrasound Elastography for Diagnosing Mediastinal and Hilar Lymph Nodes
BACKGROUND Pathophysiological processes, such as malignancy, can lead to the formation of stiffer tissue in lung cancers. Endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) elastography is a novel technique for measuring tissue stiffness during EBUS-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA). The current study was conducted to investigate the diagnostic value of EBUS elastography for mediastinal and hila...
