Abstract
Introduction: The ability to reliably visualize the facial nerve in relation to the location of vestibular schwannoma (VS) is crucial for preoperative surgical planning and may increase the safety of surgery. Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) tractography has enabled unprecedented in vivo preoperative visualization of the facial nerve. We conducted a meta-analysis to assess the accuracy of DTI tractography for locating the facial nerve in preoperative VS resection planning.
