This review article was conducted to compare magnetic resonance imaging and multislice spiral tomography of floor of mouth anatomical structures; this is a challenging region of oral cavity for dentist since it is made up of soft, vascular, glandular and nervous tissues, in turn lacks bone tissues, making it much more susceptible to pathologies. Therefore, magnetic resonance is the preference study for soft tissues because it allows knowing more easily anatomy and multislice spiral tomography ideal for hard tissues analysis, however floor of mouth can be evaluated without being the imaging study indicated for is. The present work is a compilation of articles in databases and internet in order to compare both: magnetic resonance and multislice spiral tomography.

Keywords : Magnetic resonance; multislice spiral tomography; floor of mouth; anatomy; muscles.
