Three-dimensional tonotopic mapping of the human cochlea based on synchrotron radiation phase-contrast imaging
Abstract The human cochlea transforms sound waves into electrical signals in the acoustic nerve fibers with high acuity. This transformation occurs via vibrating anisotropic membranes (basilar and tectorial membranes) and frequency-specific hair cell receptors. Frequency-positions can be mapped with...
