MRI surveillance of vestibular schwannomas without contrast enhancement: Clinical and economic evaluation

To determine if high-resolution T2-weighted (HRT2) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a comparably accurate and economical alternative to the gold standard of contrast-enhanced T1-weighted (T1C) MRI for surveillance of know vestibular schwannomas (VSs).Retrospective case-control analysis, systematic review, and economic evaluation.Vestibular schwannoma size in anteroposterior, mediolateral, and superoinferior axes were measured by two...
