Abstract:Objectives
Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 is a clinical and research standard for evaluating malignant tumors and lymph node metastasis. However, quantitative analysis of nodal status is limited to measurement of short axis diameter (SAD), and metastatic lymph nodes below 10 mm in SAD are often not detected. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the value of multifrequency magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) when added to RECIST 1.1 for detection of lymph node metas… Show more
