A Novel Nano-approach for Targeted Inner Ear Imaging
During the last decade, there have been major improvements in imaging modalities and the development of molecular imaging in general. However detailed inner ear imaging still provides very limited information to physicians. This is unsatisfactory as sensorineural hearing loss is the main cause of permanent hearing loss in adults and at least 134 genetic mutations that result in congenital heari...
متن کاملHuman fetal inner ear involvement in congenital cytomegalovirus infection
BACKGROUND Congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is a leading cause of sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL). The mechanisms of pathogenesis of CMV-related SNHL are still unclear. The aim is to study congenital CMV-related damage in the fetal inner ear, in order to better understand the underlying pathophysiology behind CMV-SNHL. RESULTS We studied inner ears and brains of 20 human fetuses, ...
متن کاملCochlear implantation in children with congenital inner ear malformations.
OBJECTIVE/HYPOTHESIS To assess the audiologic and surgical outcomes for pediatric cochlear implant patients with inner ear malformations. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective review of 315 pediatric cochlear implant cases from 1994 to 2002. METHODS Twenty-eight pediatric cochlear implant patients with known inner ear malformations determined on high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) of the tempor...
متن کاملImaging diagnostics: congenital malformations and acquired lesions of the inner ear.
INTRODUCTION Congenital malformations and acquired lesions of the inner ear are characterised by small structural changes in this region. In recent decades, treatment options have improved considerably. At the same time, there has been a great advancement in diagnostic methods, obtaining high-resolution labyrinth images. Currently, we use a 64-multislice computed tomography scanner in spiral mo...
متن کاملInner Ear Anomalies Causing Congenital Sensorineural Hearing Loss: CT and MR Imaging Findings
any portion of the membranous or the bony labyrinth. A primary or secondary deficiency of the cochlear nerve may also present as a congenital anomaly. CT and MRI allow for a detailed analysis of each lesion and they can provide guidance for the proper treatment of each patient. Both CT and MR imaging can be used to detect inner ear malformations, yet the two techniques are often complementary. ...
