PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. To estimate the mean difference in oxygen saturation (%sO2) between healthy and malignant inguinal lymph nodes using ultrasound-guided photoacoustic imaging (PAI) in cancer patients. SECONDARY OBJECTIVE: I. To examine the role of ultrasound-guided PAI in detecting metastases in the inguinal lymph nodes and ultrasound features of lymph nodes such as the size, shape of the lymph nodes. OUTLINE: Patients undergo standard of care ultrasound of the lymph nodes, then undergo ultrasound-guided PAI over 3-5 minutes. Patients then undergo standard of care ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (FNA) or biopsy a suspicious lymph node. After completion of study, patients are followed up for 3 months.
