Larynx.

The complex anatomy of the larynx, best conceptualized as a set of mucosal folds draped over a cartilaginous skeleton, has developed as a consequence of its many upper airway functions. Despite its deep location in the neck, much of the mucosal surface of the larynx is amenable to direct laryngoscopic inspection. The role of the radiologist in laryngeal imaging, therefore, is not primarily to diagnose disease, but to aid in both surgical staging and in the evaluation of potential clinical "blind spots." In this article, the normal anatomy of the larynx is reviewed, with special attention to important surgical and functional structures.
