    Author: Wei Y, Xiao J, Zou L.
    Journal: AJR Am J Roentgenol; 2007 Aug; 189(2):488-97. PubMed ID: 17646477.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: In this article, we review the CT and MRI features of secondary involvement of the masticator space in a variety of tumors. We focus on showing various patterns of tumor spread to the masticator space. CONCLUSION: Secondary masticator space involvement is not rare. Familiarity with the anatomy of the masticator space and its anatomic relationship with adjacent structures is important for imaging interpretation.
