    Journal: Strahlenther Onkol; 1987 Aug; 163(8):500-4. PubMed ID: 3307000.
    Abstract:
    The article describes the role of sonography in the diagnostic of head and neck tumors, comparing the advantages and disadvantages in regard to other methods. The suprasonic procedure permits the detection of the dimension, type, borderlines and relations of tumors to neighbour tissues. The method has a special value for preoperative staging and surgical planning strategy. But also in long time controls sonographic diagnostic takes a definitive place. The ultrasound controlled biopsy is regarded as an important progress.
