头颈部肿瘤影像学诊断进展

An evaluation of the technologies of medical imaging in the diagnosis of head and neck tumor

头颈部肿瘤是一种常见的肿瘤,其发病率逐年呈增长趋势,早期临床诊断尤为重要。影像学检查是诊断评价头颈部肿瘤的重要手段,其中CT/MRI灌注检查、PET分子成像等影像学技术是目前研究热点,但各种影像学检查均有其优缺点,多种检查手段的联合应用可以提高头颈部肿瘤诊断的准确度、敏感度和特异度,为临床治疗和预后评估提供重要依据。

Head and neck tumor is a common tumor. Its occurrence is increasing year by year. Therefore, early clinical diagnosis of its occurrence is especially important in treating it. Medical imaging is an important means to diagnose and evaluate the occurrence of head and neck tumor. The technologies currently in use include CT/MRI perfusion, PET and so on, which have been the focus of＂ the research recently. However, they all have advantages and disadvantages. We hypothesize that a combined atq,ti,~ti.n of medical imaging may improve the accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity of head and neck tumor diagnosis, which may provide important information for the clinical treatment and prognosis assessment.
