[Radiologic evaluation of the pharynx].
A variety of radiological methods are available for examination of the pharynx and they are reviewed in this presentation. The method should be chosen based on the specific clinical situation. To screen patients with swallowing complaints, a functional analysis is necessary with video or cinetechniques. For delineation of tumour growth, double-contrast radiograms, CT, ultrasound and MR should be considered the methods of choice. Angiography can occasionally be used for intra-arterial infusion in tumour treatment.
