Abstract
This review paper describes the possibilities of visualization of regional lymph nodes using contrast-enhanced ultrasound. Discussed is the experience of contrast-enhanced ultrasound implication for differential diagnosis of regional metastases of squamous cell carcinoma of the oral mucosa. The basics of the technique of contrast-enhanced ultrasound examination of the neck lymphatic basin are described.
