Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
- Participants with tumors of the head and neck region (nasal cavity, oral cavity, pharynx, larynx, sinuses, salivary glands, and head and neck skin) who are candidates for radiation treatment.
Exclusion
- Contraindications for MRI: All patients will be screened with standard UWHC MRI screening procedures:
- Any person with the following will be excluded: cardiac pacemaker, metal fragments in or around the eye, venous umbrella, permanent eyeliner or permanent artificial eyebrows.
- Patents with the following potentially non-MRI compatible devices will undergo screening using the standard UWHC MRI screening protocol by trained UWHC personnel: cardiac pacemaker, heart valve replacement, intracranial aneurysm clips, middle ear, eye, joint, or penile implants, joint replacements, implantable hearing aids, neurostimulator devices, insulin pumps, shunts/stents, metal mesh/coil implants; metal plate/pin/screws/wires, or any other metallic implants. Also patients with anatomical constraints limiting the feasibility of MRI will be excluded.
- \- Issue of pregnancy: We will exclude all known pregnant females from the study to avoid the potential risk of fetal injury upon exposure to the PET scan. Determination of pregnancy will be based upon the standard screening procedures in place for radiation therapy.
