Ultrasonographic images of LNs. (A, B) A metastatic LN in a 53-year-old man with MTC. (C, D) A metastatic LN in a 29-year-old man with PTC. (A) The LN was located at left level IV, and the grey ultrasonographic images showed a LN measured 35.1 × 15.6 mm, with hyperechogenicity, L/S > 2 and absence of hilum. (B) Color Doppler showed that the LN had a mixed vascularity pattern (white arrow). (C) The LN was located at right level III. The grey ultrasonographic images showed a LN measured 15.7 × 9.0 mm, and it demonstrated absence of hilum, L/S ≤ 2, hyperechogenicity and microcalcifications (white arrow). (D) Color Doppler showed that the LN had a mix vascularity pattern (white arrow)
