C/O tinnitus with decreased hearing on the right side since 1 year.

EXAMINATION :

M.R.I of the internal auditory meatus was performed using the following parameters :

3 mm thick T1 Weighted coronal images.

MR cisternogram was obtained in the axial and coronal planes.

The brain was screened with 5 mm thick T2 Weighted axial images.

OBSERVATION :

There is no focal area of altered signal intensity within the brain parenchyma on the T2 Weighted images. The ventricular system is unremarkable. There is mild prominence of the cerebral cortical sulci and cerebellar folia bilaterally.

The seventh and eighth cranial nerve complex on either side are unremarkable. Cochlea, semicircular canals and vestibule are also unremarkable. No obvious increased fluid is noted in the region of the inner ear structures.
