CPA cerebellopontine angle, FHI focal hyperintensity, CI confidence interval, Max CPA maximum diameter of the portion of the tumor within the cerebellopontine angle cistern, dB decibel, *p values lower than 0.05 were considered to be statistically significant, The odds of Max CPA are represented as odds per ten increase.
