The authors present a novel magnetic resonance imaging technique for visualizing structures of the cerebellopontine angle from any perspective. When treating vascular compression syndromes, this technique would be especially useful to define precisely the relationship of vascular structures to the associated cranial nerves. Its utility in preoperative planning for skull base tumors is self-evident. This technique would be a welcome addition to any skull base practice.
