Abstract: Objective To compare the endolymphatic spaces between Menieres disease(MD)group and normal volunteer group. Methods Patients were performed administration of gadolinium to mid-ear affected by MD via non-invasive method through eustachian tube, and then performed 3D-FLAIR MRI scanning afer one day. After measurement and calculation, the RV and RC(area of endolymphatic space divided by total lymphatic space in vestibule and cochlea, respectively)between the MD group and the normal group were compared. Results The endolymphatic spaces were distinct from perilymphatic spaces in vestibule and cochlea, the average of RV was 0.39, and the standard deviation of RV was 0.07; the average of RC was 0.16, and the standard deviation of RC was 0.05. RV of the MD group had significant difference compared to that of the normal group(t=-6.07, P<0.05); RC of the MD group had no significant difference compared to that of the normal group(t=0.783, P>0.05). According to diagnosis standard raised by Liu F in previous research, the positive ratio of RV was 42.9%, while the positive RC was 9.52%. The two patients during attack period both had positive RVs. Conclusion RV of the MD group had significant difference compared to that of the normal group; RC of the MD group had no significant difference compared to that of the normal group.

[8] Arterial spin labeling(ASL)is a non-invasive imaging technique that permits the quantitative analysis of tissue perfusion without contrast agents, and it has been widely used in ischemic disease research. This paper introduces the application of ASL in the assessment of ischemic ophthalmopathy and encephalopathy and compares it with other common examination techniques of the eye and brain. ASL can be used to monitor changes in cerebral blood flow and predict ischemic events, and it has been widely used in the study of ischemic encephalopathy. It can directly reflect the dynamics of blood flow through the chorioretinal vasculature, and it can be used as a reliable method for quantifying ocular blood perfusion. ASL is also relevant for the pathophysiological studies of chorioretinal diseases, which may contribute to the early diagnosis of ischemic ophthalmopathies. Currently, the application of ASL in ophthalmology is still limited, and further studies are needed to establish the utility of ASL in assessing ischemic ophthalmopathy..
