White Matter Lesions as Possible Predictors of Audiological Performance in Adults after Cochlear Implantation

White Matter Lesions as Possible Predictors of Audiological Performance in Adults after Cochlear Implantation

The presented prospective study investigated whether structural brain damage, measured with the Fazekas score, could predict hearing rehabilitation outcomes with cochlear implantation (CI). With a follow-up period of 24 months, this study included 49 bilaterally, postlingually hearing impaired CI ca...
