This study investigated the feasibility of using three-dimensional (3-D) elastography in measuring cervical lymph node volume and compared the accuracy and reliability of 3-D elastography and 3-D grayscale ultrasound in measurement of ill-defined cervical nodes. Eighteen porcine lymph nodes from the neck were embedded in tissue-mimicking phantoms and scanned with the two ultrasound techniques. Ultrasound measurements were compared with the volume determined by water-displacement method to evaluate measurement accuracy.
