Foreword
Dr. Rakesh Srivastava has devoted himself to laryngology and particularly to narrow band imaging. He has developed considerable expertise in the subject and has contributed to the literature by documenting its applications and its limitations. This current treatise on narrow band imaging is very well researched, sufficiently detailed, and also very well illustrated. I consider it a book that will gather an international audience. It can serve as a guide to professionals starting out with NBI, as well as a reference book for those seeking detailed information on unusual topics, such as the role of NBI in the oral cavity and the nasopharynx. NBI has emerged as the foremost tool for the mucosal mapping of head and neck aerodigestive cancers. It has found applications in differentiating cancer from benign pathology, directing biopsies, mapping mucosal tumour margins, and minimizing positive surgical margins, as well as in the early detection of recurrent mucosal disease. This book serves a useful aid to its readers by exploiting the full potential of this technique. All India Institute of Medical Sciences New Delhi, India
