Menière symptoms induced by an otologic implant during MR.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A patient who had had sacculotomy with placement of a stainless steel sacculotomy tack 20 years earlier experienced vertigo and auditory sensations during MR imaging. The safety of these prosthesis in MR is questionable. A simple method of determining ferromagnetic interaction is proposed.

Endolymphatic Hydrops Reversal following Acetazolamide Therapy: Demonstration with Delayed Intravenous Contrast-Enhanced 3D-FLAIR MRI.
Endolymphatic hydrops, the primary pathologic alteration in Menière disease, can be visualized by using delayed intravenous contrast-enhanced 3D-FLAIR MR imaging. It is not known whether MR imaging-demonstrable changes of hydrops fluctuate with disease activity or are fixed. We describe the results of baseline and posttreatment MR imaging studies in a group of subjects with Menière disease with...
متن کاملMR of the endolymphatic duct and sac: findings in Menière disease.
PURPOSE To compare the visibility of the endolymphatic duct and sac on high-resolution MR images with the symptoms and clinical course in patients with Menière disease. METHODS Twenty-two patients with unilateral Menière disease were sorted into two groups on the basis of the clinical stage of their disease at the time of imaging. Group 1 included patients in the acute phase, who presented wi...
متن کاملDetection and grading of endolymphatic hydrops in Menière disease using MR imaging.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Endolymphatic hydrops has been recognized as the underlying pathophysiology of Menière disease. We used 3T MR imaging to detect and grade endolymphatic hydrops in patients with Menière disease and to correlate MR imaging findings with the clinical severity. MATERIALS AND METHODS MR images of the inner ear acquired by a 3D inversion recovery sequence 4 hours after intrav...
متن کاملBlood-Labyrinth Barrier Permeability in Menière Disease and Idiopathic Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss: Findings on Delayed Postcontrast 3D-FLAIR MRI.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Menière disease and idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss can have overlapping clinical presentation and may have similar pathophysiology. Prior studies using postcontrast 3D-FLAIR MR imaging suggest abnormal blood-labyrinth barrier permeability in both conditions, but the 2 diseases have not been directly compared by using the same imaging techniques. We hypothesi...
متن کاملSubmillimeter-resolution MR of the endolymphatic sac in healthy subjects and patients with Menière disease.
PURPOSE To evaluate the utility of submillimeter resolution MR imaging for direct depiction of functional soft-tissue components of the intraosseous endolymphatic duct and sac in healthy subjects and in patients with Menière disease. METHODS Axial MR images were acquired of 14 patients with Menière disease and 14 healthy volunteers at 1.5 T with a short-echo-time steady-state 3-D gradient-ech...
