MRIPositive Diagnosis of Vestibular Neuritis Using Fluid Attenuated Inversion Recuperation (FLAIR) Sequence on a 1.5 Tesla

University Hospital, Strasbourg, France35 enrolled

Overview

Our objective is to allow positive MRI diagnosis of vestibular neuritis by highlighting contrast enhancement of the vestibular nerve on the pathological side of the FLAIR sequence acquired 1h after intravenous gadolinium injection in patients with typical vestibular neuritis. At present, the diagnosis is based on a combination clinical examination / video-head impulse test, and no imaging examination allows the diagnosis to be positive.
