New MRI technique could spot Meniere's disease without needles or dye

NCT ID NCT04569175

First seen Jun 05, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 05, 2026

Summary

This study tested a new MRI method to detect endolymphatic hydrops (fluid buildup) in the inner ear of people with Meniere's disease. The new method does not require a contrast injection, unlike the standard approach. Researchers compared the new scan to the standard contrast-enhanced scan in 14 patients to see if it works just as well. If successful, this could make diagnosis faster, safer, and more comfortable.
