CT has advantages over MRI including rapid acquisition, and high spatial resolution for detailed anatomical information on the head and neck region. Therefore, CT is the first choice of imaging modality for the larynx, hypopharynx, sinonasal region, and temporal bone. Introduction of multi-detector CT (MDCT) scanning has allowed reduction in scan time, availability of isovoxel image, and relevant 3D image reconstruction; however, it leads to over-ranging due to helical scanning, and increased radiation dose due to 3D-volume imaging, and small detector size...
