Abstract
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the possibilities of using the technique of determining the shear wave velocity in the differential diagnosis of pathologically altered lymph nodes in assessing the therapeutic effect of cervical cancer and endometrial cancer. The results of 20 patients with hyperplastic lymph nodes were analyzed, of which 8 patients were diagnosed with a cytologically confirmed metastatic lesion based on a set of ultrasound signs. When using the shear wave velocity estimation technique in these nodes, a high velocity was determined in all observations, the average value of which was about 2.9 m/sec, while in hyperplastic nodes of a benign nature, this velocity averaged about 1.3 m/sec.
