What is hypoechoic lymph nodes neck?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Less echogenic: Meaning that the node will generate fewer internal echoes suggesting edema or loss of normal architecture of the node. The finding in and of itself is non specific and could suggest inflammation, infection, or tumor.
