3-D reconstructions in the head and neck were carried out on 21 normals and 11 patients with space-occupying lesions, both before and after the administration of Gd-DTPA. The 3-D reconstructions were obtained by the "ray-tracing" method. For the 3-D reconstructions, portions of the skull surface image were removed to permit views of the deeper tissues. The 3-D reconstructions included an hypoglossus neurinoma, a glomus tumour, two carcinomas of the maxillary antra, three naso-pharyngeal carcinomas, a parotid adenoma, an oro-pharyngeal haemangioma and two lesions in the neck. The 3-D reconstructions provided a better understanding of the morphology than was obtained from the two-dimensional images. 3-D reconstructions of lesions in the head and neck will become a valuable diagnostic method for demonstrating space-occupying lesions, particularly with regard to surgical planning.

D007002 Hypoglossal Nerve The 12th cranial nerve. The hypoglossal nerve originates in the hypoglossal nucleus of the medulla and supplies motor innervation to all of the muscles of the tongue except the palatoglossus (which is supplied by the vagus). This nerve also contains proprioceptive afferents from the tongue muscles.

D008279 Magnetic Resonance Imaging Non-invasive method of demonstrating internal anatomy based on the principle that atomic nuclei in a strong magnetic field absorb pulses of radiofrequency energy and emit them as radiowaves which can be reconstructed into computerized images. The concept includes proton spin tomographic techniques.

D009442 Neurilemmoma A neoplasm that arises from SCHWANN CELLS of the cranial, peripheral, and autonomic nerves. Clinically, these tumors may present as a cranial neuropathy, abdominal or soft tissue mass, intracranial lesion, or with spinal cord compression. Histologically, these tumors are encapsulated, highly vascular, and composed of a homogenous pattern of biphasic fusiform-shaped cells that may have a palisaded appearance.

D005918 Glomus Tumor A blue-red, extremely painful vascular neoplasm involving a glomeriform arteriovenous anastomosis (glomus body), which may be found anywhere in the skin, most often in the distal portion of the fingers and toes, especially beneath the nail. It is composed of specialized pericytes (sometimes termed glomus cells), usually in single encapsulated nodular masses which may be several millimeters in diameter (From Stedman, 27th ed). CHEMODECTOMA, a tumor of NEURAL CREST origin, is also sometimes called a glomus tumor. Glomangioma,Glomangiomas,Glomus Tumors,Tumor, Glomus,Tumors, Glomus
D006258 Head and Neck Neoplasms Soft tissue tumors or cancer arising from the mucosal surfaces of the LIP; oral cavity; PHARYNX; LARYNX; and cervical esophagus. Other sites included are the NOSE and PARANASAL SINUSES; SALIVARY GLANDS; THYROID GLAND and PARATHYROID GLANDS; and MELANOMA and non-melanoma skin cancers of the head and neck.
