Imaging evaluation of laryngeal pathology has been revolutionized with the development of multidetector CT. The thinner axial CT slices result in improved contrast resolution and the ability to perform multiplanar…
The unique and specialized structures of the oral cavity and jaws give rise to a myriad of diverse developmental, inflammatory, and benign lesions or conditions. This article reviews the imaging…
From a radiologic workup perspective, tinnitus is classified into pulsatile, which can be objective, and nonpulsatile, which is typically subjective. There is considerable discrepancy within the literature regarding the percentage…
The parapharyngeal space (PPS) is a space in the suprahyoid neck that contains fat and is surrounded by several other spaces defined by the fascial layers of the neck. This…
A wide range of pathology involving the external, middle, and inner ear contribute to conductive and sensorineural hearing loss. Diagnostic imaging plays a critical role in the evaluation and management…
This article presents a systematic approach for interpreting a craniofacial CT scan that is clinically useful to the reconstructive surgeon. By categorizing the fracture patterns and highlighting the variables that…
PET/CT has revolutionized the evaluation of patients with head and neck cancer by allowing more accurate staging, more focused treatment modalities, earlier detection of recurrent disease, and identification of incurable…
CT and MRI are the two most widely used imaging modalities for evaluating head and neck pathology. There is continued controversy in the literature about which modality is superior for…
Asthma is a dynamic and complex inflammatory disease. Recent research suggests that it is a manifestation of a systemic disorder of the entire respiratory system including both upper and lower…
Laryngeal inflammation includes a broad spectrum of pathologies, from infectious processes that need to be managed as airway emergencies, to indolent diseases that mimic head and neck cancer. The importance…
