TLDR
In the otoscopically normal patient, there is a range of possible imaging approaches, however, combined CT angiography and venography is particularly useful.About:

CT Angiography as a Screening Tool for Dural Arteriovenous Fistula in Patients with Pulsatile Tinnitus: Feasibility and Test Characteristics
TL;DR: CTA can be used to screen for DAVF in patients with PT and the presence of asymmetrically visible and enlarged arterial feeding vessels has a high sensitivity and specificity for the diagnosis of DAVF.
Journal ArticleDOI
Imaging Prevalence of Sigmoid Sinus Dehiscence among Patients with and without Pulsatile Tinnitus
TL;DR: Among patients with PT, those with SSDD were younger, exclusively female, and presented with objective tinnitus, and there was no difference in average BMI between those with and those without SSDD.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical presentation and imaging findings in patients with pulsatile tinnitus and sigmoid sinus diverticulum/dehiscence.
TL;DR: SSDD may be the most common identifiable cause for PT from venous origin and is potentially treatable and Temporal bone CT scans should be included in a complete evaluation of PT.
Journal ArticleDOI
Incidence of vascular anomalies and variants associated with unilateral venous pulsatile tinnitus in 242 patients based on dual-phase contrast-enhanced computed tomography.
TL;DR: Preliminary findings suggest that venous PT patients may have multiple vascular anomalies or variants on the symptomatic side, similar to what is seen in symptomatic patients with unilateral venous tinnitus.

Chapter 23 - Tinnitus

TL;DR: The exam should include inspection of the teeth for evidence of wear, listening around the ear and neck for sounds similar to the tinnitus, palpation of the craniocervical musculature for trigger points, and probing whether the t Finnitus percept can be modulated with “somatic testing.”

Fibromuscular dysplasia
David P. Slovut,Jeffrey W. Olin +1 more
TL;DR: The most common clinical manifestations of fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) are hypertension due to renal artery involvement and transient ischemic attack or stroke due to carotid or vertebral artery involvement.

Idiopathic intracranial hypertension The prevalence and morphology of sinovenous stenosis
Richard I. Farb,I. J. Vanek,James N. Scott,David J. Mikulis,Robert A. Willinsky,George Tomlinson,Karel G. terBrugge +6 more
TL;DR: Using ATECO MRV and a novel grading system for quantifying sinovenous stenoses, the authors can identify IIH patients with sensitivity and specificity of 93%.

Characterization of Tinnitus by Tinnitus Patients
J. L. Stouffer,Richard S. Tyler +1 more
TL;DR: Tinnitus was not an occasional phenomenon, but was present for more than 26 days per month in 74% of the patients and in patients diagnosed as having Ménière's syndrome tinnitus, which suggests some patients had normal hearing or mild hearing losses.

Imaging of the Temporal Bone
TL;DR: Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging are complementary imaging modalities in the evaluation of temporal bone abnormalities and correlation with clinical history and physical examination is vital to making the correct diagnosis or providing an appropriate differential.
