Figure 1

Example for B-mode ultrasound and elastogram of a healthy LN. In B-mode ultrasound the LN exhibits no criteria for malignancy. The predominant color of the medulla is green (with smaller areas of turquoise) and the cortex is mainly blue. Applying the criterion of a blue cortex, this case would be a false-positive.
