MRI Brain with Cerebellopontine Angle (CP) with Contrast

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Brain CP Angle with Contrast is used to assess the cerebellopontine angle, which is a space filled with spinal fluid. It has the brain stem as its medial boundary, the cerebellum as its roof and posterior boundary, and the posterior surface of the temporal bone as its lateral boundary. The contrast helps in increasing the visibility of the internal organs and hence improves the sensitivity and diagnostic accuracy of the MRI scan.

This test is prescribed by the doctor to diagnose the traumatic brain injury (TBI), to detect the presence of the stroke, and brain tumor.
