Imaging Anatomy of the Pharynx (2): Nasopharynx

This is a detailed video about the imaging anatomy of the nasopharynx, and the second part of a series of videos on imaging anatomy of the pharynx. Understanding this complex anatomy is essential for interpreting both normal imaging studies and pathology. This video is part of a wider series on Head and Neck Imaging (made easy).
