The prediction of round window visibility at posterior-tympanotomy for cochlear implantation with “black bone” magnetic resonance imaging Open
Purpose Although computed tomography (CT) can predict round window (RW) visibility at posterior tympanotomy pre-operatively, there is a trend towards the application of using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) alone for cochlear implant (CI)…
