MRI diagnosis of direct involvement of CN V by DIPG in a 4-years-old boy. Axial TSE T2 (A), para-axial reformatted T1 post-contrast (B,C), coronal TSE T2 (D) and para-sagittal reformatted T1 images (E,F) show thickening of the left CN V causing filling of the left Meckel cave, consistent with direct cranial nerve involvement from the tumor (A–E, white arrows). The pathologic thickening of the left CN V is associated with contrast enhancement (B,C, white arrows). Pathologic thickening of CN V is better delineated when comparing it with the contralateral normal V cranial nerve (F, arrows).
