Design: 84 patients (163 petrous bones) have been studied by Multi-slice Helical Computed tomography (Philips Brilliance 6). We have determined the distribution of the different types of bone cover of the superior semicircular canal, taking some previously notified, standardised measurements of normality as reference. Results: During the analysis of the roof of the superior semicircular canal, we have distinguished five different types, depending on their thickness and tomodensitometric aspect. Normal pattern in 121 cases (74.2 %), with a thickness of between 0.6 and 1.7 mm, papyraceous pattern or fine thickness ≤0.5 mm that appears in 23 of our cases (14.1 %), thick pattern ≥1.8 mm that we have observed in 11 cases (6.7 %), and pneumatised pattern in 5 cases (3.1 %), which is characterised by having supralabyerinthine cells. Finally, a dehiscent pattern was observed in three cases (1.8 %). Conclusion: We describe five patterns of superior semicircular canal roofs: normal, thick, papyraceous, pneumatised and dehiscent. The papyraceous type and the dehiscent type would be subject to producing pathology, and in some cases the latter could be a consequence of the former. 000149988 540__ $$9info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccess$$aAll rights reserved$$uhttp://www.europeana.eu/rights/rr-f/ 000149988 590__ $$a1.333$$b2013 000149988 591__ $$aANATOMY & MORPHOLOGY$$b11 / 20 = 0.55$$c2013$$dQ3$$eT2 000149988 591__ $$aSURGERY$$b108 / 199 = 0.543$$c2013$$dQ3$$eT2 000149988 591__ $$aRADIOLOGY, NUCLEAR MEDICINE & MEDICAL IMAGING$$b81 / 122 = 0.664$$c2013$$dQ3$$eT3 000149988 655_4 $$ainfo:eu-repo/semantics/article$$vinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion 000149988 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0001-9372-4267$$aWhyte, J.$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000149988 700__ $$aMartinez, C. 000149988 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0002-2068-3617$$aObon, J.$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000149988 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0002-4263-4023$$aWhyte, A.$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000149988 700__ $$aCrovetto, R. 000149988 700__ $$aCrovetto, M.A. 000149988 7102_ $$11003$$2027$$aUniversidad de Zaragoza$$bDpto.
