Due to the challenges of direct in vivo measurements in humans, previous studies of cochlear tonotopy primarily utilized human cadavers and animal models. This study uses cochlear implant electrodes as a tool for intracochlear recordings of acoustically evoked responses to achieve two primary goals:...
