摘要
A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system (Hitachi, Naka, Japan) with a superconductive magnet running at 2.11 T was used to obtain 2-mm-thick slices of fixed, decalcified and celloidin-embedded human temporal bone. The temporal bone was then sectioned and stained for routine histological evaluation. Both the MR images and the histological sections were in the mid-modiolar slice plane, and comparable images and sections were analyzed to confirm the identity of the inner-ear structures visualized on the MR images. The cochlear duct, scala tympani, scala vestibuli and basement membrane of all three cochlear turns were clearly imaged on MRI. In addition, the vestibule and three semicircular ducts were also clearly seen. This study raises the possibility of some day using MRI for the diagnosis of inner-ear diseases.
