Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging of the normal anatomy of the temporal bone

M Brogan et al. Semin Ultrasound CT MR. 1989 Jun.

Abstract

The high image quality provided by current high resolution CT bone algorithms in conjunction with the multiplanar and soft tissue imaging capabilities of MRI, provide exquisite anatomic detail of the temporal bone structures. This allows the radiologist to visually dissect this complex, three-dimensional structure, if a firm understanding of normal anatomy exists. In this way, the pathological processes involving the temporal bone can be better understood and correlated with the clinical setting.
