About this study

One hundred eight patients with neck lymphadenopathy, receiving ultrasonography and ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (US-FNA), were used to construct a predictive model. This model was validated by another independent patient cohort.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

Patients with previously untreated neck masses underwent neck US

Exclusion criteria

The neck mass was not lymph node
No US-FNA cytology result

Treatment and study plan

Primary outcomes

The final diagnoses of lymph nodes were made by US-FNA cytological studies, pathologic results of the biopsy specimens, or at least 3 months of negative follow-up observations.

Time frame: 3 months
