Abstract

Lesions involving the neck are a common cause for referral to general medicine and general surgery outpatient departments. The benign and malignant lesions must be differentiated by cross sectional imaging for a proper treatment and follow-up. With a high scanning speed, multiplanar reformatting technology, thinner collimation and easy availability, CECT can be relied upon as an initial modality in characterization and localization of lesions of neck. Many studies have been published mentioning the role of CT in studying lesions of neck, but very few mentioned Contrast enhanced CT. Hence, this study is aimed at assessing the characterization and localization of neck lesions by CECT.
