  • Title: Imaging of the nasopharynx and skull base.
    Author: Chong VF, Khoo JB, Fan YF.
    Journal: Magn Reson Imaging Clin N Am; 2002 Nov; 10(4):547-71, v. PubMed ID: 12685495.
    Abstract:
    The prerequisite for the correct diagnosis and accurate delineation of skull base lesions is familiarity with the complex anatomy of the skull base. Imaging plays a central role in the management of skull base disease because this region is often difficult to evaluate clinically. CT and MR imaging are complementary; they are often used together to demonstrate the full disease extent. This article focuses on the critical anatomy of theskull base and how this knowledge contributes to accurate disease assessment.
