Detection of occult metastases in head and neck cancer feasible with SLN biopsy
Sentinel nodes can be readily identified during head and neck surgery by using a radionuclide-labeled colloid, according to presenters at the 2003 American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery Foundation meeting in Orlando, FL. In addition, careful dissection of the nodes appears to correlate with full neck dissection.
