Cochlear implant: what the radiologist should know

Abstract: Cochlear implant is the method of choice in the treatment of deep sensorineural hypoacusis, particularly in patients where conventional amplification devices do not imply noticeable clinical improvement. Imaging findings are crucial in the indication or contraindication for such surgical procedure. In the assessment of the temporal bone, radiologists should be familiar with relative or absolute contraindication factors, as well as with factors that might significantly complicate the implantation. Some criteria… Show more

“…The problem of hearing loss assumes significance not only from a vocational or economic but also psychological perspective [1] Advances have led to the increasing use of cochlear implantation in subjects with sensorineural hearing loss especially when conventional amplification devices fail to give any benefit [2] . Sensorineural hearing loss can result from a constellation of abnormalities that may involve the labyrinth, internal auditory canal, CPA (cerebellopontine angle), brain stem, or auditory pathways.…”
