The reticular lamina and basilar membrane vibrations in the transverse direction in the basal turn of the living gerbil cochlea
Abstract The prevailing theory of cochlear function states that outer hair cells amplify sound-induced vibration to improve hearing sensitivity and frequency specificity. Recent micromechanical measurements in the basal turn of gerbil cochleae through the round window have demonstrated that the reti...
