How Analyze was Used
“The pre-operative CT image voxel space was optimized for anatomical details of the ear, while the post-operative image was optimized for resolution of the electrode. The electrode lead wires and contacts were identified and segmented from the post-operative images and aligned onto the pre-operative voxel space (ANALYZE software). This composite image allows for maximum resolution of the electrodes as well as visibility of the anatomy. When pre-operative images of the implanted ear were not available, CT images from the contralateral non-implanted ear were used based on the assumption that anatomy of the two ears from the same person would be similar.”
