Intracochlear pressure as an objective measure for perceived loudness with bone conduction implants KU Leuven
BACKGROUND: The generally accepted method to assess the functionality of novel bone conduction implants in a preclinical stage is to experimentally measure the vibratory response of the cochlear promontory. Yet, bone conduction of sound is a complex propagation phenomenon, depending on both frequency and amplitude, involving different conduction pathways. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study is to validate the use of intracochlear sound pressure ...
