Diagnostic accuracy of color doppler Ultrasonography and FNAC in differentiating benign and malignant cervical lymphadenopathies at Birat Medical College Teaching Hospital, Morang, Nepal
Abstract:Introduction: Among various imaging modalities useful in diagnosis of cervical lymphadenopathies, Color Doppler ultrasound (CDUS) is useful to evaluate and determine the presence of vascularity, resistance, direction, and velocity of blood flow in lymph nodes.
