Schnittbildgebung der Innen- und Mittelohranatomie

Zusammenfassung

Im Innen- und Mittelohr liegen feine anatomische Strukturen so dicht beieinander, dass sie nur für den anatomisch versierten Betrachter zu erkennen sind. In dem Beitrag wird deshalb detailliert auf den anatomischen Feinbau des Innen- und Mittelohrs eingegangen und der klinische Bezug hergestellt. In Abhängigkeit von der jeweiligen Region wird die Wertigkeit von CT und MRT diskutiert.

Abstract

In the inner and middle ear, subtle anatomical structures are located closely together and therefore can be identified only by a trained examiner. In addition to a detailed description of the inner and middle ear anatomy, the article presents the clinical relationship to diseases and discusses the value of CT and MR in respect to the anatomical location.
