SPLEEN MORPHOMETRIC PARAMETERS IN EXPERIMENTAL BREAST CANCER THERAPY

Abstract

Abstract. The spleen is a secondary immune and the largest organ of the
reticuloendothelial system, actively involved during infectious mononucleosis.
Clinically, assessing a degree of organ involvement in the pathological process seems
unlikely. As a rule, only palpation and percussion are used to determine the size of the
spleen, which represents a late and subjective sign of potential splenomegaly.
Ultrasound examination provides ample opportunities to estimate the spleen size during
infectious mononucleosis. Our study was aimed at identifying morphometric and
Doppler ultrasound changes in the spleen in patients with infectious mononucleosis.
