17O-labeled water distribution in the human inner ear: Insights into lymphatic dynamics and vestibular function

We evaluated the inner ear distribution of 17O-labeled saline administered to the human tympanic cavity. Magnetic resonance imaging was performed after intratympanic administration in five healthy volunteers and one patient with cochlear endolymphatic hydrops. In all volunteers, 17O-labeled water pe...
