Sonographic imaging is used to identify the presence, number and location of malignant lymph nodes. Axillary lymph nodes suspicious of harbouring breast cancer metastasis can be localised to three surgical axillary levels. This paper will unpack the axillary anatomy, muscular sonographic landmarks, surgical axillary lymph node levels and the ...

Background Ultrasound‐guided prostate biopsy is the standard method for the diagnosis of prostate cancer. However, the effect of the optimal puncture approach on diagnostic yield and patient outcomes remains controversial. Objective To compare the diagnostic effectiveness and clinical outcomes of ultrasound‐guided transperineal versus transrectal ...

Evaluation of Systemic Inflammatory Markers in Predicting Malignancy in Parotid Gland Tumors
Preoperative systemic inflammatory indices may assist in distinguishing benign from malignant parotid tumors. In this cohort of 259 patients undergoing parotidectomy, malignant tumors were associated with higher neutrophil‐to‐lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet‐to‐lymphocyte ratio (PLR) values, as well as larger tumor size and older age.
