Comparison of conventional ultrasonography and elastography ultrasound in detecting malignant cervical lymph nodes
Both Strain Elastography (SE) and Virtual Touch Tissue Imaging Quantification (VTIQ) demonstrated commendable diagnostic performance for malignant nodes, with VTIQ exhibiting superior conspicuity over SE. The amalgamation of conventional ultrasonography with elastography enhances the precision of ultrasound diagnosis in cervical lymph node diseases.
