Acoustic Neuroma (Vestibular Schwannoma) Diagnosis

View on MSKCC.org ›

It can be challenging to diagnose acoustic neuroma (vestibular schwannoma). This is in part because the signs and symptoms of an acoustic neuroma — such as hearing loss, ringing in the ear, and dizziness — can resemble complications of other diseases.

When you come to MSK, your doctor has likely already:

  • examined your ears
  • evaluated your hearing
  • completed an MRI imaging test
