Initial Evaluation of Lymphosonography to Identify Sentinel Lymph Nodes in Cervical and Vulvar Cancer Patients.
The objective of this pilot study was to identify sentinel lymph nodes (SLN) in cervical or vulvar cancer subjects scheduled for surgery using lymphosonography, comparing the findings with pathology. The contrast agent Sonazoid was administered subcutaneously around the tumor, and real-time contrast-enhanced ultrasound was performed to identify SLNs. Eleven SLNs were surgically excised, while lymphosonography identified 17 SLNs in 5 subjects. Comparing surgically excised SLNs and those identified by lymphosonography showed that 10 out of 11 SLNs (or 91%) were identified by lymphosonography. Lymphosonography identified all the benign SLNs and 2 out of the 3 malignant SLNs.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Clinical Ultrasound (JCU) is an international journal dedicated to the worldwide dissemination of scientific information on diagnostic and therapeutic applications of medical sonography.
The scope of the journal includes--but is not limited to--the following areas: sonography of the gastrointestinal tract, genitourinary tract, vascular system, nervous system, head and neck, chest, breast, musculoskeletal system, and other superficial structures; Doppler applications; obstetric and pediatric applications; and interventional sonography. Studies comparing sonography with other imaging modalities are encouraged, as are studies evaluating the economic impact of sonography. Also within the journal''s scope are innovations and improvements in instrumentation and examination techniques and the use of contrast agents.
JCU publishes original research articles, case reports, pictorial essays, technical notes, and letters to the editor. The journal is also dedicated to being an educational resource for its readers, through the publication of review articles and various scientific contributions from members of the editorial board and other world-renowned experts in sonography.
