Core Tip	This manuscript describes the imaging features of silver nitrate on computed tomography (CT). Silver nitrate is sometimes used as a means of chemical cauterization during bedside head and neck procedures. Silver nitrate has high attenuation on CT and has the potential to mimic a radio-opaque foreign body such as bone. However, it does not have the normal architecture of bone with cortex and marrow on CT. Familiarity with the appearance of silver nitrate on CT and proper communication of its use to the consultant radiologist could help avoid misinterpretation as a foreign body on imaging.
