A member asked:

Hard, fixed lymph nodes in neck. u/s stated nodes appeared normal. can u/s distinguish a hard node from soft node? can u/s detect nhl?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Neck masses: Other than lymph nodes in neck are commonly thyroid nodules, branchial cleft cysts, lipomas. If you can feel these masses in your neck, have your doctor order a ct or mri. Ultrasound is particularly good at telling whether a mass is solid or cystic, not hard or soft.
