Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has implications similar to that of CT scan. It has quite few advantages compared CT.[1]
- It is more sensitive than CT scan in identifying extent of lesion.
- It is used in evaluation of tumor for its invasion of perineural tissue.
Its expensive compared to CT scan and unsafe for individuals who have metal implants of any kind.
