Gray-tone appearances on 4-hour delayed gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging indicate severe inner ear pathology and symptoms in sudden sensorineural hearing loss. [PDF]
Objective Hybrid of reversed image of positive endolymph signal and negative image of perilymph signal (HYDROPS) in delayed gadolinium‐enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) typically depicts normal inner ear as “white‐tone” and endolymphatic hydrops ...
