Abstract
Abstract: Background: Cervical adenopathy is a common problem and the differentiation of benign and malignant node is of crucial importance for therapy management.
Objective: This prospective study aimed to know if Diffusion weighted images (DWI) and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) can differentiate benign from malignant cervical lymphadenopathy.
Patients and methods: Thirty patients with cervical adenopathy were included in this study. Doppler ultrasound, DWI and ADC maps were automatically reconstructed and used for the measurement of ADC values.
Results: The sensitivity and specificity of the RI cut-off value
Keywords
