title: The nasopharynx in oral and maxillofacial radiology. II. Malignant lesions.
abstract: As with part I of this series of articles, this is not a comprehensive review of all malignant lesions to be found that involve the nasopharynx. It is an overview of how malignant lesions may appear and spread in the region of the nasopharynx. Oral and maxillofacial radiologists are reminded that familiarity with this area on diagnostic images ensures that lesions that involve this region will be interpreted as accurately as possible.
