Abstract:
Objective To explore the two-dimensional images features and color flow characteristics of scrofula, as well as their application in the localization of scrofula. Methods A total of 110 cases of the scrofula confirmed by operation were retrospectively analyzed. Two-dimensional images and color flow characteristics, the relationship with vascular traveling and the invasion site were recorded. Results Lymph nodes of the lateral neck region along with large vessels were most commonly involved, then followed the submaxillary lymph nodes and the lymph nodes anterior neck longitudinally. There might be multiple lesions behaving differently on two-dimensional images and with different color flow characteristics. Conclusion Most of scrofula can be diagnosed clearly according to the two-dimensional images and color flow characteristics. The description of relationship between involved lymph nodes with vascular, the depth and position of scrofula make the operation safety.
