An optically-guided cochlear implant sheath for real-time monitoring of electrode insertion into the human cochlea

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Anastasiya Starovoyt from the DepartmentThe University have published the research: An optically-guided cochlear implant sheath for real-time monitoring of electrode insertion into the human cochlea, in the Journal: Scientific Reports Scientific Reports
  • what: The aim of this study was to enable intra-operative guidance of insertion of a perimodiolar electrode sheath into the human cochlea, by integrating a miniaturized forward-facing OCT probe. The results of this study demonstrated, for the first time, that the optically-guided sheath enables visualization of the cochlear walls, allowing the surgeon to adjust the insertion trajectory . . .
