Abstract

Ten patients with tongue cancer underwent both MR imaging and sonography. In seven of these patients, pathologic findings from glossectomies were correlated with MR and sonographic results. MR images of resected specimens also were obtained in two patients, and relaxation time was calculated in one of these patients. MR images (5- to 7-mm thick slices) were obtained by using a 0.1-T resistive magnet with a 128 x 256 acquisition matrix. MR and sonography had almost the same sensitivity for detecting primary-site tongue cancer. However, in the three patients with extraorgan spread of tumor, MR was superior, showing three of three cases, compared with sonography, which showed extraorgan spread in only one of the three cases. Although MR failed in one patient to differentiate postradiation scar tissue from tumor, because of similar relaxation time of both, this imaging technique proved to be an important adjunct to the physical examination in the staging of tongue cancer.
