Computed tomography of the nasopharynx and related spaces. Part I: Anatomy

AJ Silver, ME Mawad, SK Hilal, P Sane and SR Ganti

The normal computed tomographic anatomy of the nasopharynx and pterygopalatine and infratemporal fossae is analyzed. Particular attention is given to the distinction between deglutitional and masticatory muscles. The relations of the palatal muscles to the eustachian tube are described in detail. Those soft-tissue features that, when they deviate from normal, can provide early detection of nasopharyngeal lesions are emphasized.
