Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Correlation of symptoms (occurrence and intensity) with machine learning segmentated volume of vestibular schwannoma.<br>Is a larger volume of an acoustic neuroma associated with a higher frequency or greater intensity of symptoms such as hearing loss, vertigo and tinnitus?<br>Is a specific growth pattern (maximum length*width*height as well as intra- or extrameatal fraction) associated with increased symptom severity?
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Which frequency is most affected by hearing loss by the growth of an acoustic neuroma? <br>How well does automated segmentation by a neural network correlate with or overlap manual segmentation?<br>Can automated segmentation of vestibular schwannoma give us information about the likelihood of occurence and intensity of symptoms?<br>How ist growth of acoustic neuroma ifluenced by stereotaktic radiotherapie?<br>Do Gender, Age or side of the AN korrelate with size and growth rate of AN?
