Zusammenfassung:	Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has increasingly new applications in neuro-otology. The aim of this review was to summarize MRI applications in neuro- otology and make a correlation between neuro-otologic anatomy and MR images. Different MRI techniques have been described in the imaging of different neuro-otologic structures. In particular, we discuss the effectiveness, indications, and techniques of MRI in the demonstration of neuro-otologic tracts and their related pathologies. MRI should be the first choice imaging modality for the evaluation of retrocochlear pathologies.
