ABSTRACT: 3D visualization was established for noninvasive evaluation of neurovascular compression syndromes. MR-CISS (constructive interference in the steady state) is the most potent image source to depict neurovascular details. The purpose of this article is the conceptual view over the established technique of 3D visualization in the topography of aneurysms in the posterior circulation in relation to surrounding cranial nerves and the brainstem.
