摘要：
There are many modalities, which are being used for detection of cervical lymph nodes in head and neck cancers clinical examination, computed tomography, ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging and radionuclide scintigraphy. Various studies in past have highlighted their benefits and drawbacks used singly or in comparison with others. Here we present the study of 100 patients comparing the result of clinical examination, computed tomography and ultrasound. © 2007 Association of Otolaryngologists of India.
