Background The frequency dependent contributions of the various bone conduction
pathways are poorly understood, especially the fluid pathway. The aim of this work is to …

Hearing preservation may be achieved initially in the majority of patients after cochlear
implantation, however, a significant proportion of these patients experience delayed hearing …

Bone conduction (BC) is heavily relied upon in the diagnosis and treatment of hearing loss,
but is poorly understood. For example, the relative importance and frequency dependence …

Background Under bone conduction (BC) stimulation, the otic capsule, and surrounding
temporal bone, undergoes a complex 3-dimentional (3D) motion that depends on the …

Our ability to hear through bone conduction (BC) has long been recognized, but the
underlying mechanism is poorly understood. Why certain perturbations affect BC hearing is …

Purpose Several treatment methods for hearing disorders rely on attaching medical devices
to the tympanic membrane. This study aims to systematically analyze the effects of the …

Background The generally accepted method to assess the functionality of novel bone
conduction implants in a preclinical stage is to experimentally measure the vibratory …

In order to improve the prediction accuracy of the sound quality of vehicle interior noise, a
novel sound quality prediction model was proposed based on the physiological response …

The vestibular and cochlear aqueducts serve as additional sound transmission paths and
produce different degrees of volume velocity shunt flow in cochlear sound transmission. To …

Electromagnetic middle ear implants (MEIs), which use the mechanical vibration of their
implanted transducers to treat hearing loss, have emerged to overcome the limitations of …
