Must know pseudolesions in Head & Neck
Speaker: Darka Hadnadjev Simonji, Novi Sad/RS | Moderator: Davide Farina, Brescia/IT

General description, scope and objectives of this webinar
The webinar “Must know Pseudolesions in Head & Neck” will focus on imaging entities that can be confusing in everyday radiological practice. These may be normal variant anatomy, normal anatomy in an atypical location or iatrogenic placed foreign bodies. When imaging a patient with wide range head and neck symptoms, radiologist should keep in mind that multiple pseudolesions may mimic pathology. This webinar will present common pseudolesions that can be found in the Head and Neck, with their typical imaging characteristics and appearance. Being familiar with these pseudolesions radiologist will avoid misdiagnosis and mismanagment of the patient.
The programme of this webinar will cover pseudolesions in skull base, oral cavity, submandibular, parotid and masticator spaces, buccofacial space, supraclavicular fossa, visceral space. It is aimed at head & neck radiologists, radiologist residents/juniors, students and people who are interested in the ESHNR diploma who want to improve their skills in:
– Differentiating normal variant anatomy from real lesions
– Recognising imaging entities that can be confusing leading to misinterpretation

After watching the webinar, participants will be able to
– Identify and characterize relevant incidental findings in head and neck
– Avoid misinterpretation of pseudolesions in head and neck in daily radiological practice
