Advances in Oto-Rhino-Laryngology
|November 9, 2020
Summary
This review focuses on imaging for neurolaryngology, primarily assessing pathology in laryngeal nerve pathways. It highlights the recurrent laryngeal nerve
Area of Science:
- Neurolaryngology
- Radiology
- Neuroanatomy
Background:
- Imaging plays a crucial role in assessing neurolaryngology, focusing on laryngeal nerve pathways.
- The vagus and laryngeal nerves' anatomy is established, with the recurrent laryngeal nerve being central to imaging assessment.
Purpose of the Study:
- To detail the pathology and imaging characteristics of disorders affecting laryngeal nerve pathways.
- To provide a summary of normal laryngeal imaging appearances for radiological anatomy familiarization.
Main Methods:
- Review of anatomical pathways of the vagus and laryngeal nerves.
- Analysis of imaging characteristics for various pathologies at different levels of the laryngeal nerves.
Main Results:
- The recurrent laryngeal nerve is the primary focus for imaging in neurolaryngology.
- Detailed descriptions of pathologies and their radiological appearances are provided.
Conclusions:
- Understanding normal laryngeal imaging is essential for identifying abnormalities.
- Imaging is vital for diagnosing and assessing pathology within the laryngeal nerve pathways.

01:30Radiological Investigation II: MRI and Ventilation Perfusion Scan
367
Description
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...

01:30Radiological Investigation I: X-ray and CT
875
Radiological investigations, including X-rays and computed tomography (CT) scans, are critical for diagnosing and evaluating various medical conditions. These imaging techniques provide valuable insights into the body's internal structures, aiding in the detection of abnormalities, assessment of disease progression, and development of treatment strategies. This article delves into two primary radiological investigations, chest X-rays and CT scans, outlining their purpose, procedures, and...

01:13Radiological Investigation III: Pulmonary Angiogram and PET Scan
282
Radiological investigations are paramount in the diagnosis and management of various pulmonary diseases. Two essential investigations are the Pulmonary Angiogram and the Positron Emission Tomography (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...

01:30Endoscopic Studies I: Bronchoscopy and Thoracoscopy
367
Endoscopy is a non-surgical medical technique used to examine a person's internal organs and vessels. This lesson will focus on two types of endoscopic studies: bronchoscopy and thoracoscopy.
Bronchoscopy
Description
Bronchoscopy is a procedure that involves direct visualization of the larynx, trachea, and bronchi for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. A flexible fiber optic or rigid bronchoscope is used to carry out the procedure. The fiber-optic bronchoscope is more frequently used due...

01:30Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation V: Advanced Airway Management Techniques
296
Airway management is essential in emergency and surgical medicine, ensuring ventilation and oxygenation in patients who cannot maintain their own airway. Clinicians use a range of techniques and devices to secure the airway, depending on the patient’s condition and the clinical context. Key methods include endotracheal intubation, rapid sequence intubation (RSI), supraglottic airway devices, and advanced visualization aids. In cases where these approaches fail, surgical airway...
