Supraglottic Carcinoma Treated with Curative Radiation Therapy: Identification of Prognostic Groups with MR Imaging

Abstract

MR imaging-determined pre-epiglottic space involvement and abnormal signal intensities in the thyroid cartilage adjacent to the anterior commissure and/or the cricoid cartilage are strong predictors of local outcome in supraglottic carcinoma treated with definitive radiation therapy.
