Figure 2From: Multi-detector row computed tomography (MDCT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the evaluation of the mandibular invasion by squamous cell carcinomas (SCC) of the oral cavity. Correlation with pathological dataMRI SE T1 axial planes before (a) and after gadolinium infusion (b); SE T1 coronal planes before (c) and after gadolinium infusion (d). MRI shows alveolar ridge carcinoma (arrows) with an infiltration of the cortical and medullary bone (circles).CT in axial planes (e-f) shows an infiltration of the cortex (arrows). Histologycal data (g-h) shows the only cortical bone infiltration.Back to article page
