[Ultrasound and radiologic diagnosis of breast nodules in young women].

Mammography as a priority method of diagnosis of breast nodules in young women is of low efficacy as a result of a dense background of the breast as distinct from echography permitting the detection of abnormal lesion against this background. Altogether 126 patients with clinical manifestations of breast nodules were investigated. Apparatus methods used for investigation of 38 of them, revealed but manifestations of fibrocystic mastopathy.

[Radiodiagnosis of metastases to the upper abdominal and retroperitoneal lymph nodes].

The examination of 170 patients with cancer of the esophagus and proximal stomach made it possible to specify x-ray, ultrasonic and CT signs of cancer metastases to the upper abdomen and retroperitoneum. A scheme of radiodiagnosis of these metastases is suggested. The diagnostic value of x-ray, echography and CT was considered in relation to various lymph nodes involvement.
