Cochlear promontory anatomy relevant to development of subendosteal and transpromontory electrodes using 192‐section ultra‐high resolution temporal bone CT imaging
Abstract:Objective
To characterize normative adult ranges for cochlear promontory thickness relevant to the development of subendosteal and transpromontory electrodes to rehabilitate various neurotologic disorders.
Patients
Adults (≥18 years).
Intervention
In vivo radiologic assessment using a 192‐slice CT scanner (Force‐192; Siemens Healthcare) with ultrahigh‐resolution scan mode combined and iterative reconstruction.
Main Outcome Measure
Cochlear promontory thickness.
Results
Among 48 included patients (96 ears), the… Show more
