Diffusion tensor imaging in trigeminal neuralgia: beyond the normal . . . The aim of the study was to evaluate the role of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) in the detection of microstructural changes of normal appearing trigeminal nerve in patients with trigeminal neuralgia and the correlation between DTI parameters and pain severity
Diffusion tensor and kurtosis imaging reveal microstructural . . . - Springer FA DR was the best independent predictor of microstructural changes in TN Both DTI and DKI can be used for noninvasive quantitative evaluation of the changes in the microstructure of the cisternal segment of the cranial nerves in clinical practice
Diffusion tensor imaging for assessment of microstructural changes . . . The aim of the present study was to investigate the microstructural tissue changes of the trigeminal nerve (TGN) in patients with TN after they underwent radiofrequency rhizotomy Thirty-seven patients with TN were recruited, and diffusion tensor imaging was obtained before and two weeks after radiofrequency rhizotomy
Diffusion tensor imaging reveals microstructural alteration of the . . . Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) has been used to detect microstructural alteration and effect of surgical treatment of the trigeminal nerve root (TR) in patients with classical trigeminal neuralgia (CTN) underwent microvascular decompression (MVD)
Microstructural alteration of trigeminal nerve revealed by DTI and its . . . Classical Trigeminal Neuralgia (CTN) is mainly caused by vascular compression of the trigeminal nerve We analyzed the correlation between the fractional anisotropy (FA) apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values of the bilateral trigeminal nerves and the degree of neurovascular compression (NVC) for CTN patients
Application of diffusion tensor imaging in detecting microstructural . . . Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) was used to detect microstructural alteration and influence of surgical intervention of the trigeminal nerve root (TR) in patients with classical trigeminal neuralgia (CTN) without neurovascular compression (woNVC) who had undergone internal neurolysis (IN) Methods
