Differentiating Benign and Malignant Metastatic Cervical Lymph Nodes by Diffusion Weighted MRI Sequence
Introduction: The metastasis to the regional cervical lymph nodes is associated with an increase in nuclear to cytoplasmic ratio leading to reduction in water diffusivity and micro circulation of the node. Aim: To analyze the potential role of diffusion-weighted imaging to differentiate benign...
