In this article, based on two clinical examples, the possibilities of multiparametric ultrasound in the differential diagnosis of metastatic and lymphoproliferative changes in lymph nodes in primary-multiple malignant tumors, including breast cancer and lym - phoma, are evaluated. Multiparameteric ultrasound includes B-mode, color and energy Doppler imaging, strain elastography, shear wave elastography and contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS). Standardization and reproducibility of these ultrasound techniques will allow to objectify the study, obtaining specific indicators of shear wave velocity in the zones of interest and specific signs of contrast enhancement, which can be used as impor tant differential diagnostic tool in oncology.
