In this study, the differential equation characterizations of constant breadth spacelike curves are given in the Minkowski4-space E4. Furthermore, a criterion for a spacelike curve to be a curve of constant breadth in Eis introduced. As an example, theobtained results are applied to the case that the curvatures k, k, k3are constants and are discussed
