Axial T2-weighted fat-suppressed MR images of two patients without head and neck cancer showing bilateral normal/benign reactive retropharyngeal (a), left jugulodigastric (b) and right Level IIa (b) nodes. The mean SADs of the largest nodes for retropharyngeal, jugulodigastric, and Level IIa nodes were 3.9 ± 1.2 mm, 7.4 ± 1.9 mm, and 4.9 ± 1.6 mm, respectively. (IJV = internal jugular vein, SAD = short axis diameter)
