Imaging Findings of Variable Axillary Mass and Axillary Lymphadenopathy.

The axilla is a triangular space that contains mesenchymal tissues such as fat, vessels, nerves and lymph nodes, from which various diseases can develop. This article describes axillary masses and axillary lymphadenopathies using imaging findings from techniques such as ultrasonography, mammography, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. Awareness of the characteristic imaging findings of disease entities that cause axillary masses and various axillary lymphadenopathies will help in the accurate diagnosis of axillary lesions.
