MRI Brain with Cerebellopontine Angle (CP) Angle

The MRI Brain with Cerebellopontine Angle (CP) Angle is a specialized imaging test that provides detailed pictures of the brain, along with the area where the cerebellum and pons meet, known as the CP angle. This test is commonly used to examine important areas responsible for hearing, balance, and facial movements. It is prescribed by doctors to diagnose conditions such as traumatic brain injury (TBI), stroke, brain tumors, and other issues affecting the CP angle, like acoustic neuromas or nerve damage. The MRI Brain with Cerebellopontine Angle (CP) Angle is recommended when individuals experience symptoms like hearing loss, tinnitus (ringing in the ears), dizziness, or facial weakness. It helps doctors detect abnormalities that could be affecting the nerves in the CP angle. The procedure is non-invasive and uses strong magnets and radio waves to create clear images of the brain without using radiation.
