Abstract:
Strong engagement from expert radiologists is essential in ensuring the optimal function of a multidisciplinary group focused on the treatment of head and neck cancer. Active participation in multidisciplinary conference can be among the most rewarding roles for radiologists. Despite many benefits to radiologist involvement in multidisciplinary teams, there are obstacles and challenges that can prevent full participation. This article highlights the key issues that should be considered by radiologists and multidisciplinary team leaders when planning participation in a new or existing multidisciplinary group that focuses on the care of patients with head and neck cancer.

Radiological Investigation III: Pulmonary Angiogram and PET Scan
Pulmonary Angiogram
A Pulmonary Angiogram is an invasive procedure involving injecting a contrast medium through a catheter threaded into the pulmonary artery or the right side of the heart to visualize the pulmonary vasculature. Computed Tomography (CT) scans have mainly replaced this...
Radiological Investigation II: MRI and Ventilation Perfusion Scan
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Ventilation Perfusion Scans are two radiological investigations that offer detailed diagnostic images of the body, particularly lung structures.
MRI
MRI uses magnetic fields and radiofrequency signals to distinguish between normal and abnormal tissues. This technology provides a more detailed diagnostic image than CT scans, enabling it to characterize pulmonary nodules, stage bronchogenic carcinoma, and evaluate inflammatory activity in...

Definition and Purpose
An X-ray, or radiograph, is a non-invasive method that uses ionizing radiation to take images of internal structures. It is mainly used in cardiac imaging to examine the heart, lungs, and major blood vessels, aiming to identify abnormalities in the heart's size, shape, and position, such as heart failure, congenital defects, and vascular...
