Abstract:
The neck visceral space is a complex region housing several vital structures. Diagnostic imaging plays an important role in the evaluation of neck visceral injuries. Many injuries are initially missed by both clinicians and radiologists because of their infrequency and the high likelihood of other more obvious injuries. Understanding which diagnostic modality to apply at given point in the work-up; recognizing relevant clinical signs, symptoms, and injury mechanisms; and knowing pertinent direct and indirect imaging findings of injury allow radiologists to either directly render the correct diagnosis or choose the most appropriate tool for doing so.
