Abstract:
Cervical lymph node metastasis(CLNM)is an important risk factor for recurrence of thyroid cancer,and ultrasound is the first imaging method for preoperative assessing status of cervical lymph node.Ultrasound contrast agents can be used to enhance the echo difference between target site and surrounding tissue,reflect microvascular perfusion and improve diagnostic accuracy.As a new ultrasound contrast agent approved for sale in China in recent years,Sonazoid demonstrated good stability and unique ability of vascular late-phase imaging.The physical properties and preliminary application progresses of Sonazoid in CLNM of thyroid cancer were reviewed in this article.
