Multisection CT as a Valuable Tool in the Postoperative Assessment of Cochlear Implant Patients

摘要

Summary: A data acquisition protocol for postoperative imaging of cochlear implants by using multisection CT (MSCT) is described. The improved image quality of MSCT allows assessment of the precise intracochlear position of the electrode array and visualization of individual electrode contacts. Such images can aid in fitting the speech processor, especially in difficult cases.
