Objectives To determine the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasound (US), CT and their
combination in detecting cervical lymph node metastasis (CLNM) in patients with papillary …

Background Lymph node metastasis (LNM) in patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma
(PTC) is common. This meta‐analysis assesses the diagnostic accuracy of computed …

Importance The use of ultrasonography (US) vs cross-sectional imaging for preoperative
evaluation of papillary thyroid cancer is debated. Objective To compare thyroid US and …

Purpose Ultrasound (US) is the first imaging technique in the assessment of cervical lymph
nodes metastasis (LNM) of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) patients preoperatively. Computed …

Purpose To evaluate the performance of preoperative ultrasound in the diagnosis of cervical
lymph nodes metastases (CLNM) of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) and its value in assisting …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Ultrasound has become widely accepted as the first
imaging technique used for the assessment of cervical lymph node metastasis in patients …

BACKGROUND: Ultrasonography has been proposed to enhance preoperative assessment
of cervical lymph node status in patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) …

Background Currently, there is no evidence-based medical evidence for the diagnosis of
lymph node metastasis (LNM) of thyroid cancer (TC) by ultrasound combined with computed …

To investigate the diagnostic efficiency of contrast‐enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) for the
diagnosis of cervical lymph nodes metastasis (CLNM) of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) …

Objectives This study aimed to evaluate conventional ultrasound (US) combined with
contrast‐enhanced computed tomography (CT) of the neck to predict central lymph node …
