Abstract

Program Description: Through this interactive presentation, the audience is exposed to challenging temporal bone radiology cases and offered strategies to improve their interpretation. We will cover key findings for chronic ear disease and conductive hearing loss, lateral skull base lesions, and the petrous apex. The emphasis is placed on subtle but pertinent findings on computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging examinations and their importance in creating and narrowing a differential diagnoses. We will present guidelines to aid in the efficient acquisition and interpretation of imaging for patients with common otologic symptoms such as vertigo, sudden hearing loss, and pulsatile tinnitus. Educational Objectives: (1) Interpret key radiographic findings for common pathologic conditions of the temporal bone. (2) Order appropriate radiographic tests to evaluate common conditions and understand the strengths and limitations of various imaging modalities.
