Cochlear implants transmit actual sound signals through electrodes. This converts sounds into electrical impulses, which are interpreted by the brain. It aims to replace the cochlea’s function.

Motion, Inc., a leader in developing advanced robotic-assisted systems for cochlear implant surgery, announced a major milestone in its mission to advance cochlear implant surgery beyond human ...

Dr. Gantz later became the first doctor to ever implant multi-channel cochlear electrode devices. Today, some implants use robot-assisted insertion of the electrode. The program is now headed ...

Herein, we aim to provide data and expert commentary about elective cochlear implant (CI) removal that may help to guide clinical decision-making and formulate guidelines related to CI explantation.

This mismatch can arise from differences in the insertion depth of cochlear implant electrodes, which can impair spatial hearing abilities. Research has shown that a significant percentage of BCI ...

A Massachusetts 10-month-old heard for the first time thanks to cochlear implants she received at UMass Memorial Medical Center. Charlie Sinclair, of Hardwick, was diagnosed with Usher syndrome ...

For measurements at any implant electrode, a broad range of values was observed within cochlear implant subjects. This was shown in Figure 4 ... We were not capable of detecting individual ...

During cochlear implant (CI) surgery, it is desirable to perform intraoperative measurements ... For IC recordings, different MED-EL (Innsbruck, Austria) FLEX electrode arrays were used with the ...

Dr. Gantz later became the first doctor to ever implant multi-channel cochlear electrode devices. Today, some implants use robot-assisted insertion of the electrode. The program is now headed ...

The advanced technology is designed to provide a controlled electrode array insertion during cochlear implant procedures, resulting in less trauma to the cochlea when compared to manual insertions.

Pulses of light restored hearing in gerbils. Could that lead to higher-tech cochlear implants? Could light one day be used to restore hearing? To try to answer that question, a team of German ...
