Comparison of CT, MRI, and PET/CT for the evaluation bone invasion in upper and lower gingival cancers

The aim of this study was to compare the diagnostic value of three imaging methods for the detection of bone invasion in upper and lower gingival cancer: computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and positron emission tomography (PET)/CT.
