Investigation of correlation between shear wave elastography and lymphangiogenesis in invasive breast cancer and diagnosis of axillary lymph node metastasis
BackgroundAccurate evaluation of axillary lymph node metastasis (LNM) in breast cancer is very important. A large number of hyperplastic and dilated...

Improved detection of sentinel lymph node metastases allows reliable intraoperative identification of patients with extended axillary lymph node involvement in early breast cancer
BackgroundAn improved procedure that allows accurate detection of negative sentinel lymph node (SLN) and of SLN macrometastases during surgery would...

A non-invasive preoperative prediction model for predicting axillary lymph node metastasis in breast cancer based on a machine learning approach: combining ultrasonographic parameters and breast gamma specific imaging features
BackgroundThe most common route of breast cancer metastasis is through the mammary lymphatic network. An accurate assessment of the axillary lymph...

Predictive nomogram based on serum tumor markers and clinicopathological features for stratifying lymph node metastasis in breast cancer
BackgroundThis study was aimed to establish the nomogram to predict patients’ axillary node status by using patients’ clinicopathological and tumor...

Adjuvant medial versus entire supraclavicular lymph node irradiation in high-risk early breast cancer (SUCLANODE): a protocol for a multicenter, randomized, open-label, phase 3 trial
BackgroundSupraclavicular nodal (SCL) irradiation is commonly used for patients with high-risk breast cancer after breast surgery. The Radiation...

Prediction model of axillary lymph node status using automated breast ultrasound (ABUS) and ki-67 status in early-stage breast cancer
BackgroundAutomated breast ultrasound (ABUS) is a useful choice in breast disease diagnosis. The axillary lymph node (ALN) status is crucial for...

Minimize the extent and morbidity of axillary dissection for node-positive breast cancer patients: implementation of axillary lymph node dissection based on breast lymphatics level
BackgroundBreast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL) is associated with extensive axillary dissection. Axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) based on...

Is it Necessary to Perform Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy in Thin Melanoma? A Retrospective Single Center Analysis
Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) is a standard procedure for regional lymph node staging and still has the most important prognostic value for the...

Automated Breast Ultrasound (ABUS)-based radiomics nomogram: an individualized tool for predicting axillary lymph node tumor burden in patients with early breast cancer
ObjectivesPreoperative evaluation of axillary lymph node (ALN) status is an essential part of deciding the appropriate treatment. According to ACOSOG...

Development and validation of nomograms for predicting axillary non-SLN metastases in breast cancer patients with 1–2 positive sentinel lymph node macro-metastases: a retrospective analysis of two independent cohorts
BackgroundIt is reported that appropriately 50% of early breast cancer patients with 1–2 positive sentinel lymph node (SLN) micro-metastases could...

A delta-radiomic lymph node model using dynamic contrast enhanced MRI for the early prediction of axillary response after neoadjuvant chemotherapy in breast cancer patients
BackgroundThe objective of this paper is to explore the value of a delta-radiomic model of the axillary lymph node (ALN) using dynamic...

Cancer metastasis through the lymphatic versus blood vessels
Whether cancer cells metastasize from the primary site to the distant sites via the lymphatic vessels or the blood vessels directly into the...

Sentinel node theory helps tracking of primary lesions of cancers of unknown primary
BackgroundSentinel lymph node is the first stop of lymphatic spreading of cancer with known primary. The lymph node metastasis pattern of cancer of...

Differentiation of benign and metastatic lymph nodes in soft tissue sarcoma
Lymph node metastasis (LNM) occurs in less than 5% of soft tissue sarcoma (STS) patients and indicates an aggressive course of disease. Suspicious...

Lymphangiogenesis: Lymphatic System and Lymph Nodes; Cancer Lymphangiogenesis and Metastasis
The lymphatic system is considered the major conduit for cancer metastasis. Two key recent developments have made cancer lymphangiogenesis and cancer...

Prognostic significance of occult lymph node metastases in breast cancer: a meta-analysis
BackgroundOccult metastases in axillary lymph nodes have been reported to be associated with poor prognosis in patients with breast cancer. However,...
