This study compared MRI findings with histopathological results in patients with laryngeal cancer to assess the effectiveness of MRI in evaluating the disease.
Twenty-five patients were analyzed to determine the extent of cancer involvement in various regions, including the thyroid cartilage and vocal cords, prior to surgery.
MRI demonstrated high accuracy, particularly in detecting invasion of prelaryngeal soft tissue (92%), making it a valuable tool in the preoperative assessment of laryngeal cancers.
