A Robotic System Integrated With CBCT for Cochlear Implant Surgery: Accuracy Improvement and Validation
09/04/2024 - In robot-assisted cochlear implantation (CI), the drilling accuracy of a tunnel for electrode array (EA) insertion is critical to the success of the surgery. Currently, robots for tunnel drilling...
Automatic data-driven design and 3D printing of custom ocular prostheses
04/03/2024 - Millions of people require custom ocular prostheses due to eye loss or congenital defects. The current fully manual manufacturing processes used by highly skilled ocularists are time-consuming...
Predicting Cochlear Implant Electrode Placement Using Monopolar, Three-Point and Four-Point Impedance Measurements
17/02/2022 - Objective: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between cochlear implant (CI) electrode distances to the cochleas inner wall (the modiolus) and electrical impedance measurements made...
Real-Time Localization of Cochlear-Implant Electrode Arrays Using Bipolar Impedance Sensing
08/09/2021 - Objective: Surgeons have no direct objective feedback on cochlear-implant electrode array (EA) positioning during insertion, yet optimal hearing outcomes are contingent on placing the EA as close...
Speech Perception With Novel Stimulation Strategies for CombinedCochleo-Vestibular Systems
01/09/2021 - Cochlear implants are very well established in the rehabilitation of hearing loss and are regarded as the most successful neuroprostheses to date. While a lot of progress has also been made in the...
