Gamma Knife treatment planning using knowledge‐based reinforcement learning
Abstract Background Inverse planning is often used for Gamma Knife radiosurgery, allowing clinicians to mathematically specify desired clinical objectives and dose limits. The objectives are controlled by weights that are manually tuned to find the desired trade‐off, which varies from case to case.

The Long‐Term Impact of Facial Palsy on the Quality of Life of Vestibular Schwannoma Patients
Abstract Objective To compare long‐term quality of life (QoL) of vestibular schwannoma (VS) patients with and without facial palsy. Study design Longitudinal cohort study. Setting Tertiary referral centre. Methods To assess QoL, VS patients completed the Penn Acoustic Quality of Life (PANQOL) questionnaire twice: at baseline and 6 years later.

Adjunctive Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy or Intratympanic Steroids in Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss?
Sudden sensorineural hearing loss is traditionally treated with steroids, either orally and/or via intratympanic injections, and hyperbaric oxygen treatment (HBOT) has resurged in popularity as an adjunctive therapy. The study has not found any additional treatment benefit with adjunctive concurrent HBOT; however, HBOT might be of value to patients ...

ABSTRACT Objectives The acute imbalance syndrome (AIS) refers to acute‐onset and persistent vertigo, dizziness and/or imbalance without nystagmus, reflecting a subset of the acute vestibular syndrome (AVS) with or without nystagmus. While AVS with nystagmus is well characterized and the approach to these patients is validated, much less is known about ...

Microsurgical Anatomy Of Acoustic Neuroma
Because acoustic neuromas most frequently arise in the posteriorly placed vestibular nerves, they usually displace the facial and cochlear nerves anteriorly (Figs. 11, 12, and 13). The facial nerve is stretched around the anterior half of the tumor capsule.
