Lymphoscintigraphy and Sentinel Nodes - Journal of Nuclear …
网页2015年6月1日 · It has been validated that sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) shows whether a patient’s breast cancer or melanoma has spread to regional lymph nodes. As a result, management of patients with these cancers has been revolutionized. SLNB has replaced axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) as the staging modality of choice for early breast cancer and has replaced complete lymph node dissection as ...

An Imager’s Guide to Perineural Tumor Spread in Head and Neck …
网页2019年3月1日 · Perineural spread (PNS) refers to tumor growth along large nerves, a macroscopic analog of microscopic perineural invasion. This phenomenon most commonly occurs in the head and neck, but its incidence varies with histologic tumor subtype. PNS results from a complex molecular interplay between tumor cells, nerves, and connective stroma. PNS is clinically underdiagnosed despite its impact on ...
