Top Magn Reson Imaging. 2021 Apr 1;30(2):85-96. doi: 10.1097/RMR.0000000000000278.

Abstract

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the imaging modality of choice to evaluate the complex anatomy and pathology of the oral cavity. In this article, an overview of MRI findings of common benign lesions in the oral cavity including congenital, vascular, and inflammatory/infectious lesions will be reviewed. In addition, MRI findings of common benign and malignant oral cavity tumors will be presented.
