Long-term Mobile Phone Use and Acoustic Neuroma Risk. [PDF]
There is concern about potential effects of radiofrequency fields generated by mobile phones on cancer risk. Most previous studies have found no association between mobile phone use and acoustic neuroma, although information about long-term use is ...

Cochlea-sparing acoustic neuroma treatment with 4π radiation therapy
Purpose: This study investigates whether 4π noncoplanar radiation therapy can spare the cochleae and consequently potentially improve hearing preservation in patients with acoustic neuroma who are treated with radiation therapy.

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.

Sensorineural hearing loss in neurological practice
Sensorineural hearing loss (SHL) is one of the most common disorders in neurological practice. In our country, many patients with SHL are observed to be mistakenly diagnosed with chronic cerebral ischemia.

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 ...
