The purpose of this exhibit is: 1. Review the radiological anatomy of the cranial nerves on MRI 2. To exhibit various diseases of cranial nerves in pediatric patients 3. To discuss the optimized MRI protocols for evaluating cranial nerves in pediatric patients

1. Summarized review on the cranial nerves 2. Review of the radiological anatom, clinical considerations, and imaging issues of each cranial nerves by using 3D reformatted MR image sets; Diseases may include    - Congenital: absence or dysplasia, isolated or in association with other congenital anomalies or syndromes (e.g. mid facial anomaly, Duane retraction syndrome)    - Inflammatory: primary or secondary neuropathies (e.g. multiple sclerosis, Miller-Fisher syndrome)    - Tumorous: primary tumor or secondary involvement by intracranial or extracranial tumors (e.g. optic glioma, leukemic infiltration)    - Miscellaneous 3. Technical issues of the pediatric cranial nerve imaging   - Review of the high resolution 3D MR sequences for cranial nerves   - Limitations of the cranial nerve imaging in pediatric patients   - Optimization of the pediatric cranial nerve imaging
