Two pathologically proved and four presumed optic nerve meningiomas demonstrated significant enhancement and were best seen with the fat-suppression technique. None of the three presumed optic nerve gliomas nor the optic nerves of normal subjects demonstrated qualitative enhancement. We conclude that the use of a fat-suppression technique with gadopentetate dimeglumine enhancement improves delineation of enhancing optic nerve lesions. This technique should be useful for evaluating other anatomic regions where enhancing tissue marginates fat.
