About This Trial
The diagnostic and pre-therapeutic assessment of squamous cell carcinomas requires a neck and chest CT scan and a neck and facial MRI, which is the most effective examination, to establish the TNM stage of the tumor. However, obtaining this complete assessment can delay treatment. Confirmation of the non-inferiority of 40keV dual-energy CT in BOLT compared to MRI would spare the patient an additio…
