Contrast evaluation of the pharynx and esophagus.

Abstract:

:Swallowing requires the coordinated action of the alimentary tract from the oral cavity to the gastroesophageal junction. Any structural or functional abnormality along this pathway will interfere with swallowing. The "barium swallow" or pharyngoesophagogram requires examination of the oral cavity, pharynx, esophagus, and gastric cardia.

  • CT of laryngeal tumors.

    abstract::CT is the radiographic procedure of choice in evaluating laryngeal neoplasia. CT not only is easily tolerable and relatively noninvasive for the patient but also assesses deep and extralaryngeal pathology. It allows tumor staging and, therefore, treatment planning to be more intelligently performed. ...
