Introduction In the majority of US institutions, gastrectomy specimens are sent for pathologic examination without surgeon assessment or standardized technique of lymph node (LN) assessment for gastric cancer. We conducted a quality improvement project at a US cancer center utilizing surgeon assessment of gastric LNs, and created a video to illustrate a technique of standardized lymph node assessment...
Background Nodal status is one of the most important prognostic factors in gastric adenocarcinoma (GC). As such, it is important to assess an appropriate number of lymph nodes (LNs) in order to accurately stage patients. However, the number of LNs assessed in each GC case varies, and in many cases the number examined per gastric specimen is less than current recommendations. Purpose We aimed to...
High-frequency ultrasound (HFU, >20 MHz) offers a means of investigating biological tissue at the microscopic level because the short wavelengths and small focal-zone beam diameters of HFU transducers provide fine-resolution images (<100 ??m). In this study, three-dimensional (3D) quantitative-ultrasound (QUS) methods were developed and evaluated to detect metastases in freshly-dissected lymph...
