Radiologic studies of larynx after radiotherapy for carcinoma.
Antero-posterior linear tomography was used in conjunction with a xeroradiographic lateral view of the neck to study 35 cases of carcinoma of larynx previously treated by irradiation. Although false negatives and false positives did occur, this method is reasonably reliable in the diagnosis or exclusion of recurrent malignancy.
