A member asked:
Will mri of brain and orbits also cover ears as i also have pulsatile tinnitus?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes, an MRI of the brain will see the area of the years, although there is no guarantee that it will be able to see any obvious reason for tinnitus. Good luck.

Yes, an MRI of the brain includes the brainstem and connections to the ears but is unlikely to answer questions about the etiology of tinnitus. Suggest an otolaryngological consult.
