The human cochlea transforms sound waves into electrical signals in the acoustic nerve
fibers with high acuity. This transformation occurs via vibrating anisotropic membranes …

Objectives: The spatial position of a cochlear implant (CI) electrode array affects the spectral
cues provided to the recipient. Differences in cochlear size and array length lead to …

Cochlear duct length (CDL) measurement or estimation is a hot topic for various research
groups in the cochlear implant (CI) field as of today. Getting the CDL along the outer wall …

Objectives Knowledge about cochlear duct length (CDL) may assist electrode choice in
cochlear implantation (CI). However, no gold standard for clinical applicable estimation of …

Although the spiral anatomy of the human cochlea seems evident, measuring the highly
inter-variable true dimensions is still challenging. Today, only a few three-dimensional …

Objective: Cochlear implants are traditionally programmed to stimulate according to a
generalized frequency map, where individual anatomic variability is not considered when …

Since the introduction of cochlear implants into clinical routine, the interest in measuring
cochlear parameters, particularly the cochlear duct length (CDL) has increased, since these …

Objective: To three-dimensionally reconstruct Rosenthal's canal (RC) housing the human
spiral ganglion (SG) using synchrotron radiation phase-contrast imaging (SR-PCI). Straight …

Background Despite significant anatomical variation amongst patients, cochlear implant
frequency-mapping has traditionally followed a patient-independent approach. Basilar …

The gold standard method for visualizing the pathologies underlying human sensorineural
hearing loss has remained post-mortem histology for over 125 years, despite awareness …
