Abstract

Background: Vascular loops of theanterior inferior cerebellar artery (AICA)within the cerebellopontine angle (CPA)and internal auditory canal (IAC) have beenimplicated in the pathogenesis of variousneuro-otological symptoms, including vertigo, tinnitus, hearing loss, andhemifacial spasm. High-resolutionmagnetic resonance imaging
