BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: High-resolution T2-weighted fast spin-echo MR imaging
provides excellent depiction of the cisternal and intracanalicular segments of the …

Objective: To describe the internal auditory canal (IAC) and inner ear morphologic
characteristics of children with cochlear nerve (CN) deficiency. Study Design: Retrospective …

PURPOSE: To introduce aplasia or hypoplasia of the vestibulocochlear nerve (VCN) as a
possible cause of hearing loss and to identify the magnetic resonance (MR) imaging …

Objective: To describe the imaging findings and clinical outcomes of children with apparent
cochlear nerve aplasia undergoing cochlear implantation. Study Design: Retrospective case …

Objective Cochlear nerve deficiency (CND) is increasingly diagnosed in children with
sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL). We sought to determine the prevalence of CND, its …

Background Cochlear implantation has become an accepted treatment for deafness. As the
frequency of cochlear implantation has increased, requests for images have also increased …

Objective To evaluate the incidence and type of intracranial and inner ear abnormalities in
children with sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) identified with magnetic resonance imaging …

OBJECTIVE: Unilateral sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) can be caused by a variety of
lesions of the inner ear and central nervous system. An inner hair cell or neural site of …

PURPOSE: To evaluate the length and width of the bony canal of the cochlear nerve in
patients with congenital sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) who have “normal” findings at …

Objective: To evaluate speech perception after cochlear implantation in children with
cochlear nerve absence or deficiency. Methods: A retrospective case review was performed …
