I have heard conflicting views on this, so I made an executive decision and have been consistent on this. If using the 1995 guidelines for the exam, and under neck, there is documentation concerning lymphadenopathy, would you count this as the lymphatic system? I have heard that this should be done, and also heard it shouldn't and instead count the neck as a body part. This could be crucial if this can become a comprehensive exam, as you would need 8 SYSTEMS, not body parts.
For the record, I always count this as a system - whether or not it will affect the determination of a comprehensive exam.
I would like to hear others' practice, opinions, etc. Thank you.
