Abstract: Objectives To present a neuroradiographic imaging algorithm for patients presenting with pulsatile tinnitus. Methods This was a retrospective review of patients presenting to a tertiary care academic medical center from 1993 to 2007 with a chief complaint of pulsatile tinnitus. Clinical presentation and diagnostic imaging data were analyzed.

“…1 It is caused by turbulent blood flow generated by increased flow volume or vessel stenosis and may be of arterial or venous origin. 2 PT occurs in less than 10% of tinnitus patients 3 and is usually unilateral. 4 PT is therefore a relatively common otologic symptom and both expert consensus and general guidelines recommend that all patients with PT should be investigated.…”

“…4 PT is therefore a relatively common otologic symptom and both expert consensus and general guidelines recommend that all patients with PT should be investigated. 2,3 However, despite intensive assessment, no cause is found in up to 30% of cases and patients often end up on routine waiting lists for relevant imaging. 5 Life-threatening conditions (LTCs) can present with PT and these may have disastrous consequences, if not managed promptly.…”
