Neural activity of the auditory cortex predicts speech recognition of patients with asymmetric hearing loss after cochlear implantation
Abstract Patients with asymmetric hearing loss show an asymmetry of glucose metabolism of the primary auditory cortex (PAC). We investigated whether this asymmetry could serve as an objective predictor for speech recognition with CI. Nine patients underwent 18FDG PET prior to CI surgery. Average nor...
