Transverse and coronal T1-weighted images before (left) and after (middle and right) administration of gadolinium diethylene triamine pentaacetic acid. The cisternal segments of both oculomotor nerves are readily visible exiting the midbrain. Marked contrast enhancement appears in the right oculomotor nerve (arrows).
