Modeling of Auditory Neuron Response Thresholds with Cochlear Implants

Figure 2

Midmodiolar reconstruction of cochlea implanted with contour advanced electrode array. (a) Several reconstructions were performed around the midmodiolar axis to evaluate the position of each electrode. After segmentation, each turn of the cochlea was separated into scala tympani (ST) or scala vestibuli (SV) compartments. (b) On this reconstruction we can see a scala vestibuli mislocation of the electrode array. Indeed the basal electrode () is clearly located in the SV at the level of the first turn of the cochlea, whereas the apical one (#) is localized in the SV of the first turn of the cochlea.
