Real-time ultrasound elastography in 180 axillary lymph nodes: elasticity distribution in healthy lymph nodes and prediction of breast cancer metastases

BACKGROUND: To determine the general appearance of normal axillary lymph nodes (LNs) in real-time tissue sonoelastography and to explore the method′s potential value in the prediction of LN metastases. METHODS: Axillary LNs in healthy probands (n=165) and metastatic LNs in breast cancer patients (n=...
