Zusammenfassung

Entzündliche Prozesse sowie primäre und sekundäre tumoröse Veränderungen können Hirnnerven mitbeteiligen und so zu neurologischen Defiziten führen. Neben dem Neurologen, HNO-Arzt, Augenarzt und Kiefer-Gesichts-Chirurgen kommt dem Radiologen eine besondere Bedeutung bei der Abklärung von Patienten mit Hirnnervensymptomatik zu. Die Multidetektorcomputertomographie (MDCT) und insbesondere die Magnetresonanztomographie (MRT) ermöglichen die Darstellung der Hirnnervenanatomie sowie der nervalen pathologischen Veränderungen. Der vorliegende Artikel beschreibt kurz gefasst die bildgebenden Techniken von MDCT und MRT und widmet sich der radiologischen Bildgebung entzündlicher und tumoröser Hirnnervenveränderungen.
