What Does "few Scattered Subcentimeter Lymph Nodes Within The Neck Soft Tissues" Indicate?
I have a history of Thyroid cancer.. I am post treatment 9 years.. I recently had a MRI done and it said few scattered subcentimeter lymph nodes within the neck soft tissues.. should I be worried? Should it be checked further? Thanks for your time. .

sub centimetre nodes doesnot mean anything. to tell lymphnode enlarged, it should be more than 1.5 cm. hence, I advise to followup after 3month with neck MRI and monthly to examined by the doctor to see any enlargement of lymphnode
