The basic principles of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) are reviewed and the appearances of some lesions of the skull base are discussed. NMR is a valuable diagnostic study for skull base lesions and it provides information that is not shown on the CT scan. The modern investigation of unusual skull base lesions should include both CT and NMR.
