Oropharyngeal cancer

74-year-old man with squamous cell carcinoma of the left tongue base extending into the hypopharynx. Images after chemoradiation therapy, showing complete resolution of metabolic foci. Mild diffuse increased metabolism in the oropharyngeal region consistent with mild post-therapy inflammation

Oropharyngeal cancer

60-year-old man with squamous cell carcinoma of the right tongue base. Fluorodeoxyglucose PET/CT images demonstrate focal increased metabolic activity in the right tongue base, which extends inferior to the hypopharynx (arrows) and across the midline. On the CT images (top row), soft-tissue irregularity can be seen, but the margins of the tumor are difficult to define
