Neck infections are fairly common in the emergency setting, affecting a broad spectrum of the patient population. Care should be taken not only to distinguish these conditions from other noninfectious origin such as malignancy but also to guide acute clinical management. A familiarity with neck anatomy, the imaging modalities used for investigation of such conditions, as well as common findings on imaging are critical to the care of affected patients. Cross-sectional imaging is a mainstay in this setting. This article presents the most common neck infections, and details some of their most prominent findings on cross-sectional imaging.
颈部感染在急诊环境中较为常见,影响广泛的患者群体。不仅应注意将这些疾病与其他非传染性疾病(如恶性肿瘤)区分开来,还应指导急性临床管理。熟悉颈部解剖结构、用于此类疾病检查的影像学方式以及影像学上的常见表现,对于患者的治疗至关重要。在这种情况下,横断面成像技术是主要手段。本文介绍了最常见的颈部感染,并详细介绍了它们在横断面成像上的一些突出表现。
