Vestibular Schwannoma (Acoustic Neuroma) Precision Diagnosis

We answer three critical questions rapidly: Where exactly is it? How large? How fast is it growing? Our pathway delivers answers within days:

Step 1: Gadolinium-Enhanced MRI with IAC Protocol

The gold standard. Thin-slice MRI through the internal auditory canal reveals tumors as small as 2–3 mm. Establishes exact size and relationship to the cochlear and facial nerves.

Step 2: Audiometry & Brainstem Auditory Evoked Response

Quantifies hearing loss and predicts cochlear nerve reserve—critical for treatment planning and outcome prediction.

Step 3: Vestibular Function Testing

Assesses balance nerve function. Often abnormal even when patients subjectively feel stable.

Step 4: Follow-Up Interval Determination

For small, asymptomatic tumors: 6-m
