19 Jugulodigastric lymph node Under ear lobe
20 Superficial cervical lymph node Upper sternomastoid
21 Posterior cervical lymph node Behind sternomastoid in anterior triangle
22 Supraclavicular lymph node Above clavicle
23 Preauricular lymph node In front of ear
24 Submandibular lymph node Under jaw
25 Submental lymph node under chin
26 Deep cervical chain lymph nodes Under sternomastoid
27 Thymus Lymphoid organ located in upper chest
responsible for producing and maturing
lymphocytes, or immune cells
28 Hodgkin Lymphoma - Rare cancer (accounts for 0.5% of all cancers)
-Accounts for 15% of all lymphomas diagnosed
-More frequent in males -Targets young adults
(15-39) and older adults (55 and older)
-Epstein-Barr virus may be linked (infects B
lymphocytes) -B cells accumulate
29 Regular (non Hodgkin) lymphoma -5th most common cancer -More prominent in
males over 55 -Cancer is in infection fighting cells
30 Non Hodgkin vs Hodgkin Reed-Sternberg cells are present in Hodgkins
lymphoma -Reed-Sternberg cell- large abnormal
lymphocyte that can contain more than 1 nucleus
31 CT vs MRI Both are 3D images but an MRI uses magnets
instead of X-Rays
32 Gallium scan Gallium is a chemical that is absorbed by
tumours Gallium is injected into the body and
then an X-Ray is done and tumours are visible
Done in a nuclear medicine facility
