Overview
Nasopharyngoscopy may be helpful in the diagnosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. It is used for assessment of tumor extension, determination of mucosal surface involvement and biopsy of the primary tumor. Fine needle aspiration (FNA) for biopsy and histopathological analysis is used for diagnosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
