  • Title: MR imaging of lymph nodes in the head and neck.
    Author: Ishikawa M, Anzai Y.
    Journal: Magn Reson Imaging Clin N Am; 2002 Aug; 10(3):527-42. PubMed ID: 12530233.
    Abstract:
    This article reviews imaging-based nodal classification, recent advancements in MR techniques for lymph node imaging, and characteristics of MR imaging for neck lymphadenopathy. Further technical development of MR imaging is necessary to improve accuracy of lymph node metastases in patients with N0 neck. Development of new tissue-specific MR contrast agents and functional imaging studies to address biologic activity of lymph nodes are essential in the future.
