| These bones vibrate in succession and move the lower membrane of the organ of corti located in the cochlea of the inner ear. |
|
| In man, the cochlea and the organ of Corti follow a spiral course of two and one half turns. |
|
| A cochlear implant takes the place of the damaged organ of Corti and stimulates the spiral ganglion cells directly. |
|
| The micromechanics of the organ of Corti and the tectorial membrane is then analyzed by our new method. |
|
| Since rigid vibration is assumed, only a single degree of freedom exists, and structural relations within the organ of Corti should remain static during motion. |
|
| The bulla was opened to expose the cochlea, the bony capsule was removed, and the apical turn of the organ of Corti was dissected from the modiolus. |
|
| The organ of Corti was dissected in 70 percent ethanol and mounted in glycerin to allow counting of the hair cells. |
|
| In mammals, the auditory hair cells are located within the organ of Corti on a thin basilar membrane in the cochlea of the inner ear. |
|
| The ototoxicity, however, is permanent and is due to the death of the outer hair cells in the organ of Corti of the cochlea and type I sensory cells in the vestibular organ. |
|
| Sensorineural hearing loss was defined and its mechanism is attributed to deposition of exfoliation material in the organ of Corti or its vascular supply. |
|
| Type I hair cells correspond to the inner hair cells of the organ of Corti, while Type II hair cells to the outer hair cells of the organ of Corti. |
