• MRI helps clinicians to assess patients with isolated low-tone sensorineural hearing loss. • Saccular hydrops correlates with sensorineural hearing loss at levels above 40 dB. • Vertigo patients without sensorineural hearing loss do not have saccular hydrops. • Saccular hydrops is described in patients without clinical diagnosis of Meniere's disease.
