2021, Magnetic Resonance ImagingCitation Excerpt :“Optic nerve” represents the “nerve bundles” as shown in Fig. 1, which consists of many axons or “nerve fibers”. The human optic nerve fiber count is between 693,000 to 1,685,000 as recorded in Table 1 [1–7]. The nerve fiber count increases with the retrobulbar optic nerve cross sectional area [8].
