Head and neck cancer (HNC) is the fifth most frequent cancer worldwide and associated with significant morbidity. Along with clinical examination and endoscopic evaluation, imaging plays an important role in pre- and posttherapeutic evaluation of patients with HNC. Cross-sectional Imaging techniques such as computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography / computed tomography (PET/CT) are routinely used in the assessment of these patients. This review provides an overview of the various cross-sectional imaging modalities used in the evaluation of HNC and will give a short summary of the latest imaging technologies regarding head and neck cancer diagnosis.
头颈癌（HNC）是全球第五大常见癌症，且与严重的发病率相关。除临床检查和内镜评估外，影像学在头颈癌患者的治疗前和治疗后评估中发挥着重要作用。横断面成像技术，如计算机断层扫描（CT）、磁共振成像（MRI）和正电子发射断层扫描/计算机断层扫描（PET/CT），常用于这些患者的评估。本综述概述了用于头颈癌评估的各种横断面成像模式，并将简要总结有关头颈癌诊断的最新成像技术。
