Background:

Cranial nerve (CN) segmentation via MRI is crucial for quantitative morphological analysis.
Deep learning methods exist but often neglect unique CN features and multimodal image characteristics, leading to suboptimal outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop an advanced segmentation model for cranial nerve bundles using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
To enhance segmentation by integrating intrinsic CN characteristics and multimodal image data.

Main Methods:

Proposed a dynamic-guided diffusion probability model incorporating a novel SE-A-NL module.
The SE-A-NL module addresses varying multimodal image characterization and long-range CN connections.

Main Results:

The proposed method achieved superior segmentation performance for five pairs of cranial nerves.
Outperformed existing state-of-the-art approaches in 16 out of 20 evaluated metrics.

Conclusions:

The network effectively integrates multimodal information and anatomical priors using attention mechanisms.
Comparative and ablation studies confirm the proposed method's superior performance in CN segmentation.
