Abstract
Post-radiation nasopharyngeal necrosis (PRNN) is a rare but life-threatening condition that often poses a diagnostic challenge in imaging studies owing to its overlapping features with recurrent nasopharyngeal tumours. We herein describe the characteristic imaging appearance of PRNN on post-contrast T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging, diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-PET/CT which may provide insights into its pathological findings.
