Surface-coil magnetic resonance imaging of the internal auditory canal

Surface-coil magnetic resonance imaging of the internal auditory canal.

Computed tomography is effective for detecting acoustic neuromas, but not for resolving individual nerves in the internal auditory canal. Surface-coil magnetic resonance (MR) images of the internal auditory canal were obtained using a 1.5 T superconducting magnet, a 13.5-cm-diameter surface coil, 3- and 5-mm-thick slices, and partial-saturation pulse sequences. Cranial nerves VII and VIII (thre...

Static Coil Design Considerations for the Magnetic Resonance Imaging

One of the main challenges in developing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems is to create a static coil that needs to generate magnetic field density along with the characteristics of optimal homogeneity and magnitude size. To do this, two N42 Block PMs are used and the iron core is designed and optimized in accordance with the dimensions of PM pieces using ANSYS Maxwell software. Then, al...

Normative size evaluation of internal auditory canal with magnetic resonance imaging: review of 3786 patients.

BACKGROUND A narrow internal auditory canal (IAC) is significantly associated with congenital sensorineural hearing loss. It would therefore seem likely that any patient with an IAC measured radiographically to be under the normal range represents an abnormality and probable IAC stenosis. If narrow IAC is diagnosed with routine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), then the cochlear nerve may be ev...
