Real-Time Elastography: A Web-Based Nomogram Improves the Preoperative Prediction of Central Lymph Node Metastasis in cN0 PTC

Real-Time Elastography: A Web-Based Nomogram Improves the Preoperative Prediction of Central Lymph Node Metastasis in cN0 PTC

BackgroundGiven the difficulty of accurately determining the central lymph node metastasis (CLNM) status of patients with clinically node-negative (cN0) papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) before surgery, this study aims to combine real-time elastography (RTE) and conventional ultrasound (US) features...
