Cochlear duct length along the outer wall vs organ of corti: Which one is relevant for the electrode array length selection and frequency mapping using Greenwood function?
Cochlear duct length (CDL) measurement or estimation is a hot topic for various research groups in the cochlear implant (CI) field as of today. Getting the CDL along the outer wall (LW) and organ of corti (OC) is possible but considering the clinical application especially in the selection of the el...

This brings us to conclude that the CDL at the OC is relevant for the selection of electrode array length and in applying Greenwood's frequency function. The ratio between CDL (LW) and CDL (OC) is 0.9 which is a very important number that needs to be remembered when converting CDL (LW) to CDL (OC).
