Abstract
The habitual contact between the mucosal surfaces of the oral cavity makes some clinically obvious lesions difficult to identify at CT. The interposition of air acts as a natural contrast, separating the gums from the mucosa of the buccomaseteric region; PCCT provides relevant information and should be included in the imaging workup in patients with tumors of the oral cavity.
