Thank you for your comment. According to the AANN:
"MRI scans using three-dimensional volume acquisitions with contrast and thin cuts (.08 mm)
Vessels compressing the trigeminal nerve are visualized on MRI 80% of the time".
You are correct that it is most often in people over 50, more women than men, but can be seen at any age.
