Objective: The objective of this study is to evaluate its safety and effectiveness of the bone
conduction implant (BCI) having an implanted transducer and to review similar bone …

Active transcutaneous bone conduction devices are a type of bone conduction device
developed to keep the skin intact and provide direct bone conduction stimulation. The Bone …

Purpose Analysis of head magnetic resonance images (MRI) of patients with active bone
conduction implants (BCIs) is challenging. Currently, there are two generations of the …

Direct drive bone conduction devices (BCDs) are used to rehabilitate patients with
conductive or mixed hearing loss by stimulating the skull bone directly, either with an …

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has become the gold standard for the diagnosis of many
pathologies. Using MRI in patients with auditory implants can however raise concerns due to …

Background Assessment of the internal auditory canal (IAC) and cochlea is of central
importance in neurotology. The artefacts and visibility of active auditory implants on …

Background: The magnetic force required to retain the proper placement of transcutaneous
active hearing implants varies among patients. Currently, audiologists rely on personal …

Industry standards require medical device manufacturers to perform implant-induced artefact
testing in phantoms at a pre-clinical stage to define the extent of artefacts that can be …

Objective: Active transcutaneous bone conduction devices consist of an external audio
processor and an internal implant under intact skin. During the surgical procedure, it is …

Implantable bone conduction devices have been a beneficial addition to the armamentarium
of surgical management of conductive hearing loss. They have demonstrated rapid …
