I have done my Ct scan for neck and resulted as Hypodense lesions in submandibular region. What does that exactly means??

CT scan reports alone are not really useful unless correlated with clinical findings and sometimes with ultrasound and fine needle aspiration cytology findings. So CT in your case is suggesting there some lesion in the submandibular area which may be anything from tumor to simple lymph node. You may need to undergo fine needle aspiration cytology
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
