T2-weighted and CISS images were compared with thin-section postcontrast T1 sequences for the detection of small (<10 mm) internal auditory canal schwannomas in 23 patients. The authors concluded that screening noncontrast MR imaging using a combination of axial CISS and coronal T2WI sequences can detect small internal auditory canal lesions with 100% sensitivity and excellent interobserver agreement.
