In the majority of cases, patients will have brain MRI’s and CT’s performed.  Typically we tend to focus on the causes being centrally within the brain, but eventually you’re going to have various pathologies that can cause these symptoms. As radiologists we are charged with evaluating the brain and we perform MRI and we are going to have to be fluent with not only the central causes within the brain, but also the cerebellopontine angle. When we evaluate the cerebellopontine angle, we’re responsible for the anatomy, for the imaging technique and accurately diagnosing the various pathologies that can occur in this important area.
