The radiologic approach to malignant tumors of the head and neck, with emphasis on computed tomography
Abstract:
Computed tomography is the single most effective tool for the investigation and presurgical mapping of the extent of malignant tumors of the upper aerodigestive tract, paranasal sinuses, orbit, skull base, larynx, and neck. Close cooperation between the primary physician and the radiologist is essential for planning an efficient and cost-effective diagnostic plan. The radiologist may also assist the surgeon by obliterating tumor hypervascularity with preoperative fluoroscopically controlled arterial embolization and occlusion.

Computed Tomography
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...
