Ultrasound and ultrasound shear-wave elastography evaluation of ulceroglandular type of tularemia.

Since there are many diagnoses including ulceroglandular tularemia in the differential diagnosis of swelling, pain, and palpable mass in the neck, the patient must undergo a thorough evaluation process. US shear-wave elastography can provide significant benefits in identification and treatment follow-up in order to understand the ulceroglandular mass formation observed in the neck in tularemia and the stiffness and morphology of the tissues in the lymph nodes where involvement is observed and to distinguish them from the surrounding tissue.
