Filter by:Lymph nodes are very important immune organs in the human body and play an important role in the physiological and pathological activities of the body, especially in anti-tumor immunity. The role of regional draining lymph nodes in the development of colorectal cancer is still unknown. In this study, the role of lymph nodes in the development of colorectal cancer was investigated through multicenter and multi-omics data.
In 2020, Sarda-Inman et al., developed the Ultrasound Neck Node Reporting and Data System (UNN-RADS) scale that allows decision-making about when it is appropriate to perform FNA of a cervical lymph node, evaluating seven ultrasonographic descriptors (shape, margins, echogenicity, echogenicity of the hilum, vascularity and the presence/absence of calcifications, and cystic degeneration), features that have been associated with metastatic lymph nodes, with scores ranging from 0 to 3 points, which allows categorize into 5 different risk groups. Thus, the objective of this study is to evaluate the ultrasound characteristics of metastatic LN in patients undergoing TC follow-up and to validate the UNN-RADS scale for the diagnosis of LN Metastasis in Patients with a history of TC.
To establish a predicting system on axillary lymph node metastasis based on peripheral blood CK19mRNA and contrast-enhanced ultrasound.
Unmask Trial aims to evaluate the Kappa concordance between immunochemistry and molecular biology to detecting cancer cells in sentinel lymph node in patients undergoing colectomy for non metastatic colon cancer.
This study focuses on three different lesions: pancreatic cysts, lymph nodes near the gastrointestinal tract and pancreatic masses. On one hand, the results obtained during previous studies are more advanced for the assessment of the diagnostic performance of Cellvizio needle-based Confocal Laser Endomicroscopy (nCLE) system for Pancreatic cysts. Safety and technical feasibility have already been performed, and an interpretation criteria classification exists. On the other hand, results for pancreatic masses and Lymph nodes are less developed. The study therefore comprises two sub-studies, one on the pancreatic cysts, and another on pancreatic masses and lymph nodes. 1. Cysts The primary hypothesis of the study is that using nCLE in addition to EUS-FNA and tissue sampling allows better characterization of pancreatic cysts and improves appropriate therapeutic decision-making. For physicians, integrating nCLE into the diagnostic algorithm of pancreatic cysts could impact patient management by : - Ruling out malignancy for patients with benign appearing nCLE images. - Characterizing more malignant tumors in the pancreas. 2. Pancreatic masses and Lymph nodes The primary hypothesis of the study is that in vivo imaging of lymph-nodes near the gastrointestinal tract and pancreatic masses during EUS-FNA procedures is feasible and that descriptive criteria can be defined to further differentiate the different types of lesions.
