The cranial nerves [PDF]

open access: possibleAnaesthesia & Intensive Care Medicine, 2007
Abstract The cranial nerves are described in this article with emphasis on their intracranial and extracranial relationships. Their function and distribution is also emphasized, as is the assessment of their integrity. A summary of how their clinical assessment is made and the consequences of their most common pathology is included.

Cranial Nerve Stimulation for Olfaction (Cranial Nerve 1)

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 2020
Like sensory maps in other systems, the sense of smell has an organizational structure based on converging projections of olfactory receptor neurons containing unique odorant receptors onto the olfactory bulb in synaptic aggregations termed glomeruli.

Tumors of the Cranial Nerves

2002
The cranial nerves are traditionally grouped together with a total number of 12. This is not completely correct, because the olfactory system (cranial nerve I) and the optic nerve (cranial nerve II) should be considered as embryologic invaginations of fiber tracts from the telencephalon and diencephalon, and therefore are not cranial nerves in the true

ANATOMY OF THE CRANIAL NERVES

Neuroimaging Clinics of North America, 1998
The anatomy of cranial nerves I and III through XII are presented. Each nerve is diagrammatically illustrated from its nuclear or its sensory origin and correlated with magnetic resonance and computed tomography images. The important identifying anatomical landmarks are demonstrated along the course of each nerve.

The Cranial Nerves

2003
There are 12 pairs of cranial nerves, and they originate from the brain and upper spinal cord and innervate the special sense organs in the head (eye, ear, nose, and taste buds), the skin over the face and neck, and muscles that permit us to speak, eat, turn our head, and produce facial expressions.

On the terminology of cranial nerves

Annals of Anatomy - Anatomischer Anzeiger, 2011
The present contribution adopts various points of view to discuss the terminology of the twelve nervi craniales. These are paired nerves and have dual names, terms with Roman ordinal numerals, i.e., the nerves are numbered in the top-to-bottom direction, and descriptive historical names.

IMAGING THE CRANIAL NERVES

Veterinary Radiology & Ultrasound, 2011
An understanding of the normal course of the cranial nerves (CN) is essential when interpreting images of patients with cranial neuropathies. CN foramina are depicted best using computed X‐ray tomography, but the nerves are depicted best using magnetic resonance imaging.

Lower Cranial Nerves

Neuroimaging Clinics of North America, 2014
Imaging evaluation of cranial neuropathies requires thorough knowledge of the anatomic, physiologic, and pathologic features of the cranial nerves, as well as detailed clinical information, which is necessary for tailoring the examinations, locating the abnormalities, and interpreting the imaging findings.

Cranial Nerves

2016
Abstract This chapter describes each cranial nerve (CN I through XII) and the Handles and Red Flags associated with disorders of each. These range from trauma, neoplastic lesions, infectious and inflammatory causes, and the effects of aging, to psychological manifestations.

Cranial Nerves and Cranial Nerve Nuclei

2017
The functions of cranial nerves, conduits for sensory information to enter and motor information to exit the brain, and the common complaints arising from cranial nerve injuries are described. The modified anatomical arrangement of sensory and motor territories in the brainstem provides a framework for understanding the organization of the cranial ...
