Assessment of neck lymph nodes is essential in patients with head and neck
cancers for predicting the patient's prognosis and selecting the appropriate
treatment. Ultrasonography is a useful imaging tool in the assessment of neck
lymph nodes. Greyscale ultrasonography assesses the size, distribution, and
internal architecture of lymph nodes. Doppler ultrasonography evaluates the
intranodal vascular pattern and resistance of lymph nodes. Contrast-enhanced
ultrasonography provides information on lymph node parenchymal perfusion.
Elastography allows qualitative and quantitative assessment of lymph node
stiffness. This article reviews the value of greyscale, Doppler and
contrast-enhanced ultrasonography as well as elastography in the assessment of
malignant nodes in the neck.
