Abstract: | The neck encloses a tremendous spectrum of tissues in a compact space. The normal and pathologic anatomy of the neck can be exquisitely displayed with high-resolution CT and MR imaging. Accurate assessment of the neck requires a thorough knowledge of both its complex anatomy and the scope of pathologic entities that may affect the various cervical compartments. We review the advances in the past year that serve to improve our ability to identify and characterize pathology of the cervical soft tissues. |
