BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: In many centers, MR imaging of the inner ear and auditory
pathway performed on 1.5 T or 3T systems is part of the preoperative work-up of cochlear …

Objective The implementation of 7T magnetic resonance imaging for human use has the
potential to further advance spatial resolution beyond that of 3T. This could result in potential …

Zusammenfassung Ziel der Studie: Vergleich der hochaufgelösten MR-Bildgebung der
Innenohrstrukturen bei 1, 5 T und 3 T. Methode: Es wurden jeweils beide Felsenbeine von 3 …

Background The inner ear is particularly challenging to visualize at 7T. Where the signal-to-
noise ratio will scale linear with the field strength, the proximity of the inner ear to the …

High-resolution computed tomography (CT) has long been the method of choice in the
visualization of the petrous bone, the internal auditory canal, and the cerebellopontine …

High-resolution MR imaging of the inner ear with a heavily T2-weighted 3D fast spin-echo
sequence has been performed successfully at 1.5 T. However, at 3 T, the longer T1 time of …

Advances in MR imaging continue to improve our ability to evaluate temporal bone anatomy
and disease. CT remains the procedure of choice for fine-detail imaging of bone structures …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Cochlear implantation requires introduction of a
stimulating electrode array into the scala vestibuli or scala tympani. Although these …

Abstract Objectives High‐resolution MRI (MRI) of human inner ear structures provides
several advantages over other imaging modalities. High‐resolution visualization of inner ear …
