FAQs

What structures are evaluated during MRI Brain + CP Angle?

The examination provides detailed images of the brain, brainstem, cerebellum, cerebellopontine angles, internal auditory canals, cranial nerves, inner-ear structures, and surrounding soft tissues.

Can MRI Brain + CP Angle detect tumors?

Yes. It can help identify and characterize masses in the cerebellopontine angle and internal auditory canal, including tumors affecting nearby cranial nerves.

. Is MRI Brain + CP Angle different from a routine brain MRI?

Yes. While routine brain MRI evaluates the brain broadly, CP angle MRI uses dedicated high-resolution sequences focused on the cerebellopontine angles, internal auditory canals, cranial nerves, and inner-ear structures.

Do I need any preparation before the examination?

Preparation depends on the centre's protocol. Inform the MRI team about metallic implants, pacemakers, previous surgeries, kidney disease, previous contrast reactions, pregnancy or possible pregnancy, and other implanted medical devices.

Will I need additional tests after MRI Brain + CP Angle?

Depending on the findings, your doctor may recommend audiometry, vestibular testing, CT temporal bone, additional MRI, blood tests, or consultation with an ENT specialist, neurologist, or neurosurgeon.

Who may need MRI Brain + CP Angle?

This examination may be recommended for patients with hearing loss, tinnitus, dizziness, vertigo, facial weakness, imbalance, or other symptoms suggesting an abnormality involving the cerebellopontine angle or internal auditory canals.
