“…The number of detected elective lymph nodes in this study was similar to a previous study that examined the MRI visibility and displacement of lymph nodes during radiotherapy in HNC patients (level Ib: 5 vs. 5, level II: 18 vs. 21, level III: 8 vs. 11, level IV: 2 vs. 7 and level V: 6 vs. 8) [15] . Pathology studies that investigated neck dissections in HNSCC patients reported a lymph node yield varying from 34 to 46 [18] , [19] , [20] , [21] on each side of the neck, which is higher than the number of lymph nodes seen in the present study.…”
