摘要

外耳道（EAC）由软骨部分和骨部分组成。虽然EAC是一条通路，主要与鼓室相通，但也与颞下颌关节、颞骨、颅底、颅内隔室等间隙接壤。虽然它可以通过临床检查获得，但在某些情况下，视野被阻碍，或者临床医生可能怀疑更深层次的病理参与或需要术前评估。CT、MRI和核医学在这些病例中发挥了作用。病理可包括感染性、恶性、上皮性或外伤性病变，此外，先天性病变也可影响外耳道。这篇综述的目的是使读者熟悉解剖标志，并将它们与重要的病理过程及其影像学发现联系起来。

IMAGING OF THE EXTERNAL AUDITORY CANAL: A Pictorial Review.

The external auditory canal (EAC) is composed by a cartilaginous and an osseous portion. Although it is a pathway, mainly communicating with the tympanic cavity, the EAC is bordering many spaces such as the temporomandibular joint, the temporal bone proper, skull base and the intracranial compartment. Although it can be accessed via clinical exam, there are instances where the view is obstructed, or the clinicians might suspect deeper pathologic involvement or need pre-operative evaluation. CT, MRI and Nuclear Medicine have a role in those cases. Pathologies can include infectious, malignant, epithelial or traumatic lesions, and among others, congenital processes can also affect the external auditory canal. The aim of this review is to familiarize the reader with anatomic landmarks, and to correlate them with important pathologic processes and their imaging findings.
