Surgical Findings to Differentiate Between Facial Nerve Schwannoma and Vestibular Schwannoma [PDF]
Clinical and Experimental Otorhinolaryngology, 2014 ObjectivesFacial nerve schwannomas may be misdiagnosed as vestibular schwannomas (VSs) if the tumor is confined to the internal auditory canal (IAC) without involvement the geniculated ganglion or labyrinthine segment of facial nerve.

Statistical modeling of diabetic neuropathy: Exploring the dynamics of nerve mortality [PDF]
, 2023 Diabetic neuropathy is a disorder characterized by impaired nerve function and reduction of the number of epidermal nerve fibers per epidermal surface. Additionally, as neuropathy related nerve fiber loss and regrowth progresses over time, the two-dimensional spatial arrangement of the nerves becomes more clustered. These observations suggest that with

Negative-contrast neurography: Imaging the extracranial facial nerve and its branches using contrast-enhanced variable flip angle turbo spin echo MRI [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Background and Purpose: Various 'positive-contrast' neurographic methods have been investigated for imaging the extracranial course of the facial nerve. However, nerve visibility can be inconsistent with these sequences and may depend on the composition of the parotid gland, limiting consistent identification.
