    Post mortem study of the intracochlear position of the nucleus standard 22 electrode array
    XU, JIN ; Dahm, M. C. ; Tykocinski, Michael. ; Shepherd, Robert K. ; Clark, Graeme M. ( 2000)
    The final position of an intracochlear cochlear implant electrode array can vary depending on the pathology, the insertion technique used and the type of electrode array used. The distance of the electrodes from the target neural elements and the presence of intracochlear fibrous tissue or new bone formation are believed to affect the performance of the device. A post mortem study was conducted to assess these factors.

    The role phase-contrast imagining in intra-cochlear electrode development
    Wilkins, S. ; Saudners, E. ; Clark, Graeme M. ; Cowan, R. ; XU, JIN ; Stevenson, A. W. ; Gao, D. ; Tykocinski, M. ; Cohen, L. ; Dahm, Markus ( 2000)
    In order to improve the design of intracochlear multichannel electrode arrays, it is fundamental that we have knowledge of the exact anatomical , position of the electrode within the scala of the cochlea. Currently, conventional skull radiography is still the mainstay of post-operative radiological assessment of electrode positioning. The present work investigates the use of phase-contrast radiography, a new x-ray modality, to provide improved imaging of the inner ear and the intracochlear electrode array in the human temporal bone (TB).

    Where to now? - Impact of New Technologies on use of cochlear implants
    Van Hoesel, R. ; Zhang, A. ; Tykocinski, M. ; Dham, M. ; Patrick, J. ; Parker, J. ; Clark, Graeme M. ; Cowan, R. S. C. ; Saunders, E. ; Vandali, A. E. ; Dowell, R. C. ; Treaba, C. ; Harrison, J. M. ( 2000)
    The history of cochlear implant use by adults and children with profound hearing loss although relatively short (20 some years), has been characterised by continual technological innovations which have enhanced the performance, packaging, and clinical use of these devices. In particular, the development of the Nucleus multiple channel cochlear implant has included a series of speech processing hardware and speech processing strategy, implemented by Cochlear Limited, and based on research findings that have resulted in an increase in mean speech perception benefits for adults and children.
