Ocular motor nerve palsy in patients with diabetes: High-resolution MR imaging of nerve enhancement

CONCLUSION: High-resolution MRI evaluation of diplopia in diabetic patients is used to rule out a diagnosis of acute stroke and contributes to the positive diagnosis of ocular motor nerve impairment, possibly combining the influences of inflammatory and microvascular phenomena. Dedicated MR imaging should be included in the initial diagnosis and longitudinal follow-up of patients with diabetic ophthalmoplegia.PMID:37210294 | DOI:10.1016/j.jfo.2023.01.009
