title: Real-time elastography of cervical lymph nodes in Kikuchi disease.
abstract: We report, to our knowledge, the first cases of sonographic and real-time elastographic findings of cervical lymph nodes in patients with Kikuchi disease. Cervical lymph nodes had probably benign findings on grayscale sonography and real-time elastography.
