This succinct compendium focuses on the key practical aspects of head
and neck cancer imaging. It also provides essential information on
handling and analyzing imaging data.
Head and neck cancer is the
sixth most common cancer worldwide. CT and MRI imaging are absolutely
crucial to accurate diagnosis and staging, and radiologists have to be
especially familiar with the anatomy of that region of the body. In
addition, they must be highly proficient in interpreting radiographic
images in order to judge the patterns of metastasis, response to
treatment, and the signs and patterns of recurrence.
This concise
but detailed book describes the latest imaging modalities for all types
of head and neck cancer diagnosis in light of recent technological
advances. Featuring abundant high-quality images supplemented by advice
from experts on the management of each cancer, it is a valuable resource
for diagnostic and general radiologists, as well as all medical staff
involved in the management of head and neck cancers.
