Case 77
摘要
Conventional radiographs combined with cross-sectional imaging are vital for evaluating extracranial head and neck disorders. Developing an expertise in this domain requires a solid understanding of anatomy, pathology, and various imaging modalities. This visual and interactive resource effectively links theory with practice by presenting key concepts clearly and engagingly. Each case is designed to encourage active learning through self-assessment, beginning with high-quality images and clinical vignettes that prompt readers to interpret findings for themselves and develop differential diagnoses. Concise notes explain imaging features, underlying pathology, and clinical significance, while short differential discussions foster systematic diagnostic reasoning. Designed as a complement rather than a replacement for comprehensive textbooks, this book covers the full range of head and neck conditions, from common to rare, including neoplastic, congenital, traumatic, infectious, and vascular disorders. Its interactive layout fosters self-directed learning, making it an ideal resource for radiologists, skull base neurosurgeons, neurologists, ophthalmologists, otolaryngologists, maxillofacial and dental surgeons, residents, fellows, and other clinicians involved in managing head and neck diseases. Ultimately, it aims to develop the reader’s diagnostic intuition, allowing for quick recognition of characteristic imaging patterns with confidence in clinical practice.
