The American Society of Head and Neck Radiology. Head and neck imaging: the next 10 years.
In the future, we will see continued advancements in all areas of head and neck radiology. Because of the rapid pace of developments in the areas of metabolic and functional imaging and gene therapy, it is likely that currently unsuspected and unknown future applications will also fall within the purview of radiologists. It is imperative that our specialty increase our investment in areas of investigation that were once believed to be outside the realm of imaging. Only then will be able to maintain our participation in multidisciplinary investigations that use imaging-based techniques.
