Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

Shotty is referred to small XXXXXXX lymph nodes that are palpable and usually represent a benign change, commonly associated with viral illness.

Subcentimeter means it has dimensions that are less than a centimeter.

Mediastinal lymph nodes are glands that are present in the middle of the chest between the sternum and backbone (spinal column).

I hope this answered your query.
