-Unilateral/asymmetric hearing loss and/or [[tinnitus]] and loss of balance/[[dizziness]] are early signs of a vestibular schwannoma. Unfortunately, early detection of the tumor is sometimes difficult because the symptoms may be subtle and may not appear in the beginning stages of growth. Also, [[hearing loss]], [[dizziness]], and [[tinnitus]] are common symptoms of many middle and inner ear problems (the important point here is that unilateral or asymmetric symptoms are the worrisome ones).

-===Audiogram===
-Once the symptoms appear, a thorough ear examination and hearing test ([[audiogram]]) are essential for proper diagnosis.
-==[[Schwannoma MRI|MRI]]==
-==[[Schwannoma CT|CT]]==
-Computerized tomography (CT) scans, enhanced with intravenous dye (contrast), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are critical in the early detection of a vestibular schwannoma and are helpful in determining the location and size of a tumor and in planning its microsurgical removal.
-==Treatment==
-==[[Schwannoma surgery|Surgery]]==
-Schwannomas can be removed surgically, but they can then recur.
