title: Computed tomography imaging of the temporal bone--normal anatomy.
abstract: This review describes the fundamental anatomical structures of the temporal bone as depicted on high-resolution computed tomography, and the clinical significance of these structures. It is not an encyclopaedic atlas, but provides the junior radiology/otorhinolaryngology resident with sufficient knowledge for interpretation of most of the imaging studies encountered in daily clinical practice.
