A member asked:
What does several areas of echogenicity are present within the lymph nodes, these may represent microcalcifications. mean on my lymphnode results?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Microcalcifications: This finding suggests that these are old burnt out lymph nodes from an old infectious process. Your physician can confer with radiologist who read your images to confirm that this is the case and perhaps no further follow-up will be recommended.
