Surgical proven location of the facial nerve in the vicinity of cerebellopontine angle tumours depicted pre-operatively by tractography. Magn Reson Mat Phys Biol Med. 2012;25(1 Suppl):394-5.1352-8661http://hdl.handle.net/10400.21/2694Purpose/Introduction: To determine the clinical utility of pre-operative diffusion tensor (DT) tractography of the facial nerve in the vicinity of cerebellopontine angle (CPA) tumours. The location of the facial nerve was established pre-operatively by tractography and compared with in-vivo electrode stimulation during microsurgery of vestibular schwannomas and rare CPA masses (meningiomas and arachnoid cysts).engTractographyFacial nervecerebellopontine angle tumourMeningiomaArachnoid cystsconference object
