23 Head supports Hyperextension can be achieved by elevating the chest without make a strain on the head.

24 When Extension is Not Necessary?

25 Oral Cavity

26 Pushing The lip forward in Tongue cancer But avoid tissue equivalent material

27 Tongue depressor may be different Spot the difference?

31 Open Mouth or Closed when and why?

32 Hypopharynx

33 With Tongue Bite

34 Without Tongue Bite

35 Energy Used

36 Ipsilateral neck failure as first event (13%) than patients treated by 60C0 and 4 MV (9%). This difference was not statistically significant.

37 Beam Spoiler

38 Larynx

39 1- Identify the anatomy and orientation. 2-Which is an indirect (mirror) laryngoscopy view and which is a flexible nasolaryngoscopy view ?
