Updated threshold values of preoperative serum calcitonin predict different extents of lymph node metastasis (LNM) in ...

NX: Regional lymph nodes cannot be assessed due to lack of information. A pathology report may also indicate isolated tumor cells (ITCs). This is noted when small amounts of tumor (<0.2mm and <200 ...

The proposed method has the potential for differentiating benign from malignant mediastinal lymph nodes on CT, and may provide a new way for studying lung cancer using radiology imaging.

The number of lymph nodes recovered is crucial for the correct staging of colon cancer. In this randomized trial, we compared Carnoy’s solution with routine formalin fixation in surgical specimens of ...

Lymph nodes are small, bean-shaped organs that produce blood cells designed to help fight disease and infections. "We already knew that pigments from tattoos would travel to the lymph nodes because of ...

A formal modified radical neck dissection including levels I, II, III, IV and V is usually not necessary in PTC patients with lateral compartment lymph node metastases because of the rarity of ...

Lung cancer that has metastasized to the lymph nodes can vary in outlook and treatment, based on how far and which lymph nodes the cancer has spread to.

Lymph node metastasis (LNM) plays an important role for accurately diagnosing and treating the patients with head & neck cancer. Positron emission tomography (PET) and computed tomography (CT) are two ...

Cancer researchers have a multitude of tools to study tumors. Histological staining uses dyes to make different kinds of tissue cells visible in microscopic slide images. CT scans can pinpoint the ...
