The use of positron emission tomography and computed tomography in the assessment of trismus associated with head and neck malignancy

  • P. A. Tierney (a1), I. Farag (a1) and C. A. B. Saunders (a2)
Abstract

The assessment of head and neck cancer has traditionally involved clinical examination and anatomical imaging by computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). We present a case where a problem of clinical confusion and inconclusive radiology was resolved by the use of positron emission tomography (PET) coregistered with CT.
