FAQs

Why is contrast used for this MRI?

A gadolinium-based contrast agent helps differentiate the inner-ear fluid compartments on dedicated delayed MRI sequences, allowing the radiologist to assess for features of endolymphatic hydrops.

Can this MRI be useful for hearing loss and tinnitus?

Yes. It may be recommended when hearing loss, tinnitus, or ear fullness is associated with suspected inner-ear pathology and further structural assessment is required.

Can children undergo this examination?

Yes. It may be performed in children when clinically indicated, although the protocol may need to be adapted according to age and the child's ability to remain still during the examination.

What are the advantages of this MRI protocol?

This specialized MRI provides high-resolution assessment of the inner-ear fluid compartments and can help demonstrate endolymphatic hydrops in appropriate patients, providing additional information for diagnosis and clinical management.
