Summary

1. To prospectively collect the radiologic data from the initial phase till the post-treatment phase of tuberculous lymphadenitis.
2. To prospectively investigate the benefits of corticosteroid on reduction of paradoxical upgrading reaction in patients with tuberculous lymphadenitis based on the results of shear wave elastography.
3. To investigate the potential biomarker of host immunity in response to tuberculosis and predict the development of paradoxical upgrading reaction.
