Fig 4. MPR CT images of the human cadaver temporal bone along the plane of the electrode array on Aquilion-64 (A), Brilliance 64 (B), LightSpeed-64 (C) (also seen in Fig 1), and Sensation-64 (D). The upper set of images is displayed with W/L 3000/800 and shows cochlear anatomic structures, such as the semicircular canals, well in all of the scanners. The lower set of images shows the chosen manually adjusted window/level setting for visualization of the electrode contacts. This illustrates that a wide range of HUs is essential for visualization of the CI.
