Detection of Foreign Bodies With Computerized Tomography

Bobby R. Alford, MD; David I. Chenault, MD; Julius Danziger, MD

Arch Otolaryngol. 1979;105(4):203-204.


Abstract

• Computerized tomography scanning has been proven useful in defining complex anatomical areas of the head and neck and in delineating soft-density foreign bodies. This was helpful in a child in whom all other modalities, including surgical exploration, had failed to localize a foreign body.

(Arch Otolaryngol 105:203-204, 1979)
