Non-invasive imaging for pulsatile tinnitus: a diagnostic algorithm

Pulsatile tinnitus — the perception of a rhythmic sound in sync with the heartbeat — can be a key indicator of underlying vascular or structural pathology. In this episode, JNIS new Editor-in-Chief Dr. Michael Chen speaks with Dr. Madhavi Duvvuri and Dr. Matthew Robert Amans, authors of Non-invasive imaging modalities for diagnosing pulsatile tinnitus: a comprehensive review and recommended imaging algorithm. They are both from the University of California San Francisco, USA. They discuss the current evidence base, highlight the strengths and limitations of non-invasive imaging techniques such as MRI, MRA, CT, and CTA, and outline a practical algorithm for streamlining diagnosis.    Please subscribe to the JNIS podcast on your favourite platform to get the latest podcast every month.
