Human cochlear microstructures at risk of electrode insertion trauma, elucidated in 3D with contrast-enhanced microCT

Human cochlear microstructures at risk of electrode insertion trauma, elucidated in 3D with contrast-enhanced microCT

Abstract Cochlear implant restores hearing loss through electrical stimulation of the hearing nerve from within the cochlea. Unfortunately, surgical implantation of this neuroprosthesis often traumatizes delicate intracochlear structures, resulting in loss of residual hearing and compromising hearin...
