The upper airway is an extraordinarily complex anatomic region that may be affected by various disease states. The upper airway includes the nose, nasopharynx, oropharynx, hypopharynx, larynx, and trachea, and these structures may be involved by both focal and diffuse processes.
There are also many adjacent bony and soft tissue structures that are no less complex in their anatomic arrangement. Lesions in these regions can cause extrinsic compression resulting in a compromised airway. This scan will provide with detailed evaluation of the area and its diagnosis for various problems.
