A 22-years-old male patient with a right CPA mass. This is seen hypointense on T1WI (a), hyperintense with hypointense foci (likely due to hemorrhage) on T2WI (b), showing heterogenous post-contrast enhancement, with T1WI+C (c), extending along and encasing the 5th cranial nerve reaching Meckel’s cave on CISS (d), showing signal voids on SWI (e), hypointense on DWI (f) with high ADC value 2.3 × 10−3 mm2/s (g) showing myo-inositol peak on MRS (h). These findings were matching with the final diagnosis of the right CPA trigeminal schwannoma
