Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this research study is to see if magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with a double dose of contrast, or dye, and delayed imaging with MRI can help to diagnose Meniere Disease.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Meniere's disease (MD) is a medical condition causing attacks of vertigo, ringing in the ears, hearing loss and often a fullness in the ear. Currently there is no definitive test to diagnose the problem. It is believed to be caused by inner ear abnormalities, specifically of an over-collection of lymphatic fluid.The goal of this trial is to determine if an MRI with double dose of IV gadolinium can be diagnostic.
