Electrical Stimulation in the Human Cochlea: A Computational Study Based on High-Resolution Micro-CT Scans

Background: Many detailed features of the cochlear anatomy have not been included in existing 3D cochlear models, including the microstructures inside the modiolar bone, which in turn determines the path of auditory nerve fibers (ANFs).Method: We captured the intricate modiolar microstructures in a...
