Quantifying nerve decussation abnormalities in the optic chiasm [PDF]
NeuroImage: Clinical, 2019 Objective: The human optic chiasm comprises partially crossing optic nerve fibers. Here we used diffusion MRI (dMRI) for the in-vivo identification of the abnormally high proportion of crossing fibers found in the optic chiasm of people with albinism ...

Glioblastoma in the optic chiasm: A case report [PDF]
Radiology Case Reports, 2022 Malignant optic gliomas are an uncommon pathology, with around 67 cases reported worldwide in the literature. We present the case of a 77-year-old-male with a two-month history of progressive vision loss, ultimately leading to bilateral blindness.

A case of optic chiasm stroke, a condition rarely described in the literature [PDF]
European Journal of Case Reports in Internal Medicine, 2023 Acute bilateral blindness is an emergent condition that may signal life-threatening disease. The approach focuses on identification of life-threatening disease processes, while differentiating between ocular, psychogenic and neurologic aetiologies.

Optic Nerve Glioblastoma with Optic Chiasm Involvement: A Case Report and a Brief Literature Review [PDF]
MedicinaBackground: optic nerve glioblastoma is an uncommon pathology. The optic chiasm, optic tract, or optic nerves are possible places from which the tumor can originate. Most of the neuroimaging findings are nonspecific. To confirm the diagnosis, a biopsy is

Breed-Specific Skull Morphology Reveals Insights into Canine Optic Chiasm Positioning and Orbital Structure through 3D CT Scan Analysis [PDF]
AnimalsThis study’s CT scan-based morphometric analysis of 50 adult dogs explored the relationship between skull shape variations (determined by the skull index, SI), optic chiasm, optic canals, and orbital shape. Dogs were classified as brachycephalic (SI ≥ 59)
