Résumé

Cholesteatoma is an inflammatory disease, frequently observed in childrens and young adults, with a risk of relapse or recurrence. The few studies which analyzed cholesteatoma localization on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) usually merged CT-MR images or relied on their authors' anatomical knowledge. We propose a compartmental reading method of the compartments of the middle ear cavity for an accurate localization of cholesteatomas on MR images alone.
