Neuro-ophthalmology for neuroradiologists

D A Jacobs et al. AJNR Am J Neuroradiol. 2007 Jan.

Abstract

Combining an understanding of neuro-ophthalmologic anatomy with proper imaging techniques provides a powerful method to detect lesions involving the afferent and efferent visual pathways. Precise documentation of the extent of injury within the nervous system is becoming increasingly important to assess and monitor the effect of neurologic therapies. This review will focus on those common neuro-ophthalmologic problems that have exquisite localizing value on neuro-imaging.
