LUNG CANCER Ultrasound guided cytological aspiration of supraclavicular lymph nodes in patients with suspected lung cancer
Background: Lung cancer is the leading cause of death from cancer in the UK. Pathological diagnosis traditionally requires invasive procedures such as bronchoscopy, mediastinoscopy, or image guided biopsy. Ultrasound of the neck with fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) of enlarged but impalpable supraclavicular nodes has been used in patients with suspected lung cancer who have N2 or N3 dise...

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 کاملSonography of neck lymph nodes. Part I: normal lymph nodes.
Grey scale and power Doppler sonography play an important role in assessment of cervical lymphadenopathy. However, before examination of pathological nodes, a clear understanding of the anatomy of cervical nodes, scanning technique and sonographic appearances of normal cervical nodes is essential. This article reviews these topics in order to provide a baseline for sonographic examination of ce...
