Figure 2a. Axial CT demonstrating a locally destructive tumour involving the left superior alveolar margin, extending to the left side of the nose and the left inferior orbital margin (arrow). No calcification seen on this initial CT.

Figure 2b. Coronal T1-weighted MR sequence (1.5T, TR 550, TE 14) showing the left maxillary MNTI extending upwards to displace the left eye (arrow). It is predominantly hypointense on the T1 sequence.

Figure 2c. Axial T1-weighted MR sequence (1.5T, TR 550, TE 14) showing the tumour is inhomogenously hypointense centrally (arrow).

Figure 2d. Coronal, T2-weighted MR sequence (1.5T, TR 5550, TE 119) showing a heterogenous left maxillary tumour extending upwards and displacing the left eye. The tumour also extends across the midline along the superior alveolar margin. The tumour is of low signal centrally (arrow), and this corresponds with areas of low signal on the T1-weighted sequence, and presumably represents areas of calcification within the tumour.
