Conductive hearing loss results from the disruption of the conductive ossicular chain that blocks or reduces the amplitude of sound waves reaching the inner ear. High-resolution temporal bone CT is considered the modality of choice in patients with conductive hearing loss. PCD-CT provides a more accurate representation of the temporal bone anatomy with better signal-to-noise ratio, and increased spatial resolution, however to our knowledge there is no consensus on a standardized protocol so far [1,2,3].
