"sequence: axial thin (3 mm) 2D spin-echo or isotropic (1 mm) 3D spoiled GRE (VIBE, LAVA, THRIVE, TIGRE, etc.) without fat suppression"
"sequence: axial and coronal 2D 5 mm STIR or 3D (1.5 mm isotropic) STIR (SPACE, CUBE, etc.)"
"sequence: balanced GRE 3D high-resolution cisternographic sequence (CISS, FIESTA-C, etc.) or equivalent 3D spin-echo-based T2-weighted sequence (SPACE, CUBE, DRIVE, etc.)"
"for evaluation for cholesteatoma within the temporal bone, a non-echo-planar imaging (e.g., HASTE) or a readout-segmented echo-planar imaging (e.g., RESOLVE) DWI technique is needed to reduce artifacts"
