Nasopharyngeal carcinoma is a relatively common type of malignant tumor in the head and neck area, with many examination procedures commonly used. Clinically, nasopharyngoscopy, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and pathological biopsy are frequently utilized. Nasopharyngoscopy and MRI of the nasopharyngeal area help determine the specific range of the lesion, which is useful for clinical staging and typing. However, the gold standard for diagnosing nasopharyngeal carcinoma still requires a pathological biopsy. During a nasopharyngoscopy, a sample of soft tissue can be taken for pathological analysis, which allows for a clear diagnosis as well as pathological staging and typing, aiding in subsequent treatment.
