Facial palsy detection

Facial paralysis grading methods are mostly based on geometrical dissymmetry between left and right heads. Dissymmetry also appears even on healthy subjects. Consequently, this dissymmetry should be computed to distinguish with one on facial palsy patients. However, no studies have been quantitatively reported this characteristic.

In this article, we introduce the application of 3D - FLAIR sequence without contrast enhancement on detecting abnormalities of cranial nerve pathology by presenting two cases, acute vestibular neuritis and facial nerve palsy. We suggest that 3D - FLAIR is the relatively useful sequence in detecting cranial nerve pathologies.
