Objective: To investigate the relationship between cochlear length, insertion angle, and
tonotopic mismatch and to compare the tonotopic mismatches with respect to the spiral …

Optimal matching of an electrode array to the cochlear anatomy plays a key role in bringing
the best benefit of CI technology to the users. Even within the category of normal anatomy …

Objective: Cochlear implants are the gold standard for patients with severe sensorineural
hearing loss. A focused electrical stimulation of individual spiral ganglion neurons has not …

Objective: To assess the usefulness of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) for
characterizing electrode insertion and evaluate the influence of electrode insertion status on …

Background Preoperative estimation of the insertion depth angles for different electrode
arrays can help surgeons choose the optimal electrode length, especially for low-frequency …

Objective The aim of the present study is to evaluate the effect of electrode discrimination
based on electrode to modiolus distance in different cochlear implant models, using image …

Conclusions This study demonstrates that the exact location of an electrode inside the
cochlea needs to be assessed using two complementary measures, namely the length and …

Objective The aim of this study is to examine electrode array coverage, scalar position and
dislocation rate in straight electrode arrays with special focus on a new electrode array with …

Beside the cochlear size, the linear insertion depth (LID) influences the insertion depth
angle of cochlear implant electrode arrays. For the specific implant CI422 the recommended …

Objectives/Hypothesis Three surgical approaches: cochleostomy (C), round window (RW),
and extended round window (ERW); and two electrodes types: lateral wall (LW) and …
