Part of the bestselling Contemporary Issues in Cancer Imaging series, this book provides crucial imaging information on disease extent in head and neck malignancies. A thorough knowledge of the loco-regional anatomy of this complex area and a proper understanding of the natural disease spread pattern are prerequisites in the interpretation of these imaging studies. After an introductory chapter on epidemiology and clinical signs, this book reviews the pertinent imaging findings for each of the major anatomical subsites. Emphasis is on CT and MRI, but PET and ultrasound are also discussed where appropriate. Reviews on modern surgical and radiotherapeutic techniques are included, helping the reader to understand post-treatment tissue changes and how to differentiate these from tumor recurrence or treatment complications.

Book Description
Squamous cell cancer is a common neck tumor. Imaging techniques such as CT and MRI are used to assess the extent of these tumors and determine optimal treatment - either surgery, radiotherapy or both. Imaging is also used to follow-up patients after treatment to monitor complications or recurrence.
