Extrapulmonary
tuberculosıs: an old but resurgent problem. Contrast-enhanced T1 weighted coronal (a) and sagittal T2 weighted (b) MR images of a 39-year-old female demonstrate multiple lymphadenopathies in the bilateral cervical chains. The patient was diagnosed with tuberculous lymphadenitis

Extrapulmonary
tuberculosıs: an old but resurgent problem. Contrast-enhanced T1 weighted coronal (a) and axial T1 weighted (b) MR images of a 44-year-old female demonstrate multiple lymphadenopathies in the bilateral cervical chains and right supraclavicular region. Multiple intraabdominal lymphadenopathies are also noted (not shown)

Extrapulmonary
tuberculosıs: an old but resurgent problem. A 32-year-old male. Painless, discrete, freely mobile, fistulized lumps in the neck are grown progressively (a). Ultrasound showed multiple necrotic lymph nodes (b). Scrofula of the neck

Cystic
(necrotic) lymph nodes • Papillary thyroid cancer nodal metastases - Ganzer Fall bei Radiopaedia

Adult
cervical lymphadenopathy (differential) • Cervical lymph node enlargement - Ganzer Fall bei Radiopaedia

Adult
cervical lymphadenopathy (differential) • Cervical metastatic node - Ganzer Fall bei Radiopaedia

Disseminated
histoplasmosis, a rare cause of abdominal lymphadenopathy. Axial neck images (f...h) showed several, partially confluent bilateral adenopathies, , either homogeneously enhancing (arrows) or centrally necrotic (arrowheads).
