简要总结
The purpose of this research study is to see if magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with a double dose of contrast, or dye, and delayed imaging with MRI can help to diagnose Meniere Disease.
详细描述
Meniere's disease (MD) is a medical condition causing attacks of vertigo, ringing in the ears, hearing loss and often a fullness in the ear. Currently there is no definitive test to diagnose the problem. It is believed to be caused by inner ear abnormalities, specifically of an over-collection of lymphatic fluid.The goal of this trial is to determine if an MRI with double dose of IV gadolinium can be diagnostic.

研究组 & 干预措施
Double dose of Gadopentetate dimeglumine
Subjects with a clinical diagnosis of unilateral Meniere Disease (MD) will undergo 3T MR imaging with a double dose of intravenous (IV) gadolinium contrast injection: 0.2 mmol/kg of Gd-DTPA (Magnevist)
干预措施: Gadopentetate dimeglumine (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
Grade of endolymphatic hydrops (EH) in the cochlea and vestibule
时间窗: 6 hours after intravenous contrast injection
Two Certificate of Added Qualifications (CAQ)-certified neuroradiologists will evaluate the MRI findings. The degree of EH in the vestibule and cochlea will be classified as "none", "grade I" and "grade II," with grade I being defined as mild and grade II being defined as significant.
