Popis: Objective: Previous studies using MRI techniques such as diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) as a diagnostic tool for trigeminal neuralgia found a significantly lower fractional anisotropy (FA) in the root-entry-zone of the affected nerve. We hypothesized that postoperative DTI might show an increase in [for full text, please go to the a.m. URL]
