Unlabelled: : Developing a clinically viable technique for measuring cochlear length could enhance future electrode design of cochlear implants and surgical skills to improve clinical outcomes. While computed tomography (CT) has been used, metal artifact and the exposure to higher levels of radiation limits its use. More recently, cone beam CT (CBCT) has been used to assess the integrity of the implant array in situ, exposing implantees to lower levels of radiation while retaining image quality.
