"MRI "

Line 16:1 · "MRI " is not a recognised heading for this article type.

There Is

suggestion

"They can occur in any segment of the facial nerve and tend to involve multiple segments. There is a predilection for the region of the geniculate ganglion."

Line 11:100 · Don't start a sentence with 'There is'.

Semicolons

suggestion

"Imaging characteristics of the tumour itself are the same as those of schwannomas elsewhere: homogeneous enhancement on both CT and MRI when small; heterogeneous when large. The best clue that a schwannoma is of the facial nerve rather than the more common vestibulocochlear nerve (CN VIII) is expansion extending along the facial nerve canal - especially along the labyrinthine segment."

Line 13:157 · Use semicolons judiciously.

"T2: typically hyperintense; large lesions may show heterogeneous signal"

Line 20:51 · Use semicolons judiciously.
