## Abstract __Background__. Positron emission tomography (PET) provides a noninvasive modality for evaluating the biochemical processes of normal and pathologic tissue. Preliminary reports of F‐18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET indicate its potential usefulness in evaluating head and neck tumors. The

## Abstract ## Objectives/Hypothesis: Planned neck dissection following chemoradiation (CR) has been advocated in patients with head and neck squamous cell cancer (HNSCC) with advanced nodal disease and a clinical complete response to CR because of the potential for residual occult nodal disease.
