Other important factors are the level, the number of nodes and their size, which are also correlated with the risk of

However, this system was based upon anatomical landmarks found in dissection, making it imperfectly suited to the needs of clinicians, which led to new terminology for the lymph nodes that could be palpated. The most commonly used system is one based on a classification of the lymph nodes into

While an imaging based system was proposed in 1999, these concepts were integrated into the 2002 revision of the
American Academy system. In addition to needing a standardised approach to classification of lymph nodes for the purposes of neck dissection, the application of
