Objectives: A new technique for determining the position of each electrode in the cochlea is
described and applied to spiral computed tomography data from 15 patients implanted with …

Background: Currently, accurate and reliable cochlear implant electrode localization using
conventional MDCT scanners remains elusive. Methods: Eight fresh-frozen cadaveric …

Objective/Hypothesis: A new method of reconstruction using multidetector‐row helical
computed tomography (MDCT) was applied for assessment of cochlear patency in cochlear …

With use of radiopaque implanted objects as internal fiducial markers, the authors
developed and evaluated a technique for coregistering computed tomographic (CT) and …

Background: Cochlear duct length is highly variable ranging from 25.26 to 35.46 mm, yet CI
electrode arrays are treated as one size fits most. We sought to investigate the impact of …

Objectives: This study evaluates the design of a thin perimodiolar cochlear implant electrode
array (CI532) and assesses insertion-related rotation and fold-over. Methods: The study …

Objective—To formulate and test a CT imaging protocol for preoperative scanning of the
temporal bone in cochlear implant candidates. Material and Methods—A human head was …

Objective In the field of cochlear implantation, the current trend toward patient-specific
electrode selection and the achievement of optimal audiologic outcomes has resulted in …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: A preoperative prediction of the 360° point insertion depth
would aid the planning of electric acoustic stimulation (EAS) implantation. The purpose of …

Cochlear implantation is a surgical procedure for treating patients with hearing loss in which
an electrode array is inserted into the cochlea. The traditional surgical approach requires …
