- Tumors
- Lesions due to trauma and surrounding cerebral structures
- Encephalitis
- Vertigo
- Evaluating posterior fossa
- Vertex
- Middle fossa
- Base of scull and orbit
- Screening of sclerotic plaque
- Screening for epilepsy
- Evaluating function of endocrine glands

- Acoustic neuromas
- Ischemia
- Hemorrhage
- Arteriovenous malformations
- Disorders of myelination

- Internal auditory canals
