Abstract
Comparative measurements of the cochlear electrical activity over prolonged periods require long-term implantation of electrodes. During this time, changes in the electrode recording ability and/or impairment of the sound-conducting system, could erroneously be attributed to the experiment. To avoid this risk, an easy and reliable technique is described. The procedure uses the Fallopian canal as a route by which to approach the cochlear potentials' generators, while leaving the middle ear untouched.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
