Figure 5. Magnetic resonance imaging scan of the head. (D) T2-weighted moderate hyperintense, homogenous lesion with (A–C) only minor peripheral and part central contrast enhancement. (A–D) The lesions again extend into the widened mastoid segment of the right facial canal and present with a mass in the extratemporal segment. (A–C) T1-weighted contrast-enhanced magnetization prepared-rapid gradient echo (MP-RAGE) sequence in 3-dimensional reconstruction (sagittal, coronal, axial). (D) High-resolution T2-weighted constructive interference in steady state (CISS) sequence in axial view without contrast enhancement.
