Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A contrast-enhanced computed tomography scan would be the imaging modality of choice in the evaluation of a deep tissue cervical infection due to its ability to provide detailed information about the extent of the infection and potential complications such as abscess formation. Ultrasound imaging may not provide sufficient visualization of deeper structures, and dental radiographs (full mouth and panoramic) would not provide relevant information in this scenario.
