Popliteal lymph nodes. A. Image of the dissection showing the localization of the popliteal lymph node (arrow) in the caudo-proximal aspect of the stifle joint. B. US image showing a heterogeneous (hyperechoic central area compatible with the hilus) popliteal lymph node (between cursors) caudally to the gastrocnemius muscle (G). C - D. CT images indicating the localization of the popliteal lymph nodes (arrows) seen as heterogeneous with isoattenuating periphery and hypoattenuating center in the precontrast image (C) with homogeneous peripheral enhancement in the postcontrast image (D). The gastrocnemius (G) muscles are indicated.
