Fig. 2

Benign cervical lymph node correctly diagnosed by SE and ARFI. A Grayscale US image of LN showing absent echogenic hilum. B Corresponding SE image showed total red area less than 50% consistent with elasticity scale 2. C Acoustic radiation force impulse (ARFI) measurements showed SWV of 1.52 m/sec. D A low power view of reactive follicular hyperplasia in a sentinel LN showing a preserved nodal architecture and lymphoid follicles that are highly variable in size and shape. Margins of the follicles are sharply defined and surrounded a mantle layer of small lymphocytes and separated by abundant inter follicular tissue. (H&E, × 40)
