''Ear'' aertifact in brain scans
Description
The ear closest to the camera may be imaged in high-resolution lateral views of the brain as a structure anterior to the lateral sinus. The artifact can usually be eliminated by taping the auricle down. Artifacts such as this can be expected to become somewhat more of a problem as image resolution improves
