Lymph Node Imaging

Lymph node imaging is a medical technique used to visualize lymph nodes, which are small, bean-shaped structures that help the body fight infections. This imaging can involve methods like ultrasound, CT scans, or MRI. Doctors use it to check for abnormalities, such as swollen or cancerous lymph nodes, which can indicate various health issues. By obtaining detailed images, healthcare professionals can assess the size, shape, and condition of the lymph nodes, aiding in diagnosis, treatment planning, and monitoring the effectiveness of therapies. It’s an important tool in ensuring proper health care for patients.
