Abstract: Laryngeal masses represent a significant pathology, with malignancy being the most critical concern in this context. Among these malignancies, Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC) of the larynx is the most prevalent, accounting for approximately 25% of all head and neck cancers. This research contributes to understanding the diagnostic accuracy of CECT in laryngeal cancer staging and its implications for treatment planning, reinforcing the need for an integrated approach combining clinical assessment and advanced imaging techniques. Purpose of Study: The document highlights the importance of CECT as a diagnostic tool that provides detailed insights into tumor size, extent of invasion, and involvement of surrounding structures. It discusses how CECT complements clinical examinations by offering a more comprehensive view of deep tissue involvement, which is often underestimated during clinical assessments. The study aims to correlate CECT findings with histopathological results to enhance diagnostic accuracy and improve treatment planning.
