Abstract

Optic nerve sheath meningiomas (ONSM) pose diagnostic challenges due to their rarity and imaging overlap with other optic pathway lesions. This case study presents a patient initially exhibiting decreased visual acuity, where conventional MRI failed to conclusively diagnose the underlying pathology. Employing Tektrotyd-Tc99m tomography, a novel imaging modality utilizing somatostatin analog radiotracers, enabled precise localization and characterization of the ONSM. This study underscores the importance of leveraging advanced imaging techniques in the comprehensive management of optic nerve sheath meningiomas.
