Pre-, Intra- and Post-Operative Imaging of Cochlear Implants.
The purpose of this review is to present essential imaging aspects in patients who are candidates for a possible cochlear implant as well as in postsurgical follow-up. Imaging plays a major role in providing information on preinterventional topography, variations and possible infections. Preoperative imaging using DVT, CT, MRI or CT and MRI together is essential for candidate selection, plannin...
متن کاملRole of Hrct Temporal Bone in Pre-operative Evaluation of Cholesteatoma
Background: Cholesteatoma is potentially dangerous condition as it can extend and erode into adjacent structures and can cause various serious complications. HRCT temporal bone very clearly depicts the anatomy of various small important structures in middle and inner ear cavity. Hence it is an excellent modality and investigation of choice in diagnosing and defining the extent of cholesteatoma....
متن کاملDiagnostic value of CT and MRI of Temporal Bone in Cochlear Implantation Candidates
Background Cochlear implantation is an approved treatment which can be used to treat severe to profound hearing loss. Imaging before cochlear implant surgery is very important in decision making and assessing the temporal bone anatomy for surgery. We aimed to assess the diagnostic value of high resolution CT scan (HRCT), and MRI of temporal bone in candidate pati...
متن کاملDual-time-point FDG-PET/CT Imaging of Temporal Bone Chondroblastoma: A Report of Two Cases
Temporal bone chondroblastoma is an extremely rare benign bone tumor. We encountered two cases showing similar imaging findings on computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and dual-time-point 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)/CT. In both cases, CT images revealed temporal bone defects and sclerotic changes around the tumor. Most parts of the ...
متن کاملImaging in otosclerosis: A pictorial review
Otosclerosis is an otodystrophy of the otic capsule and is a cause of conductive, mixed or sensorineural hearing loss in the 2nd to 4th decades of life. Otosclerosis is categorised into two types, fenestral and retrofenestral. Imaging plays an important role in the diagnosis and management of otosclerosis. High-resolution CT (HRCT) of the temporal bone using 1-mm (or less) thick sections is the...
