This was on a patient who was complaining of hearing loss and when tested it was found to be one sided. In MRI we have an IAC protocol for patients suspected of some growth on the 7th and 8th nerve. We do thin high res imaging of the area of interest. Here are some pics on a recent positive case. One image is a fiesta 3d image (GE Scanner) and a T1 axial post contrast. These benign tumors are slow growing and called Acoustic Neuroma or Vestibular Schwannoma.
