Journal Title: Otolaryngology Open Access Journal - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 1

Computed tomography (CT) scan, magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, and 18- F fluorodeoxy glucose positron emission tomography (18-FFDG- PET) are presently the standard for initial workup and estimating treatment response in head & neck cancer.
