False positive high DWI signal for cholesteatoma. a The coronal b1000 image shows high signal at the epitympanum, which raised suspicion for residual cholesteatoma. However, b the corresponding non-contrast enhanced coronal T1 weighted image showed high signal (white arrow) and the ADC map intermediate signal and value, both not supporting the diagnosis of cholesteatoma. Surgery confirmed non-specific inflammation with no cholesteatoma
