ABSTRACT
Personalized care in the context of cochlear implantation is becoming increasingly important. Choosing the right electrode could improve speech understanding. The measurement of the cochlear length plays an important role preoperatively, in order to select a suitable electrode length; postoperatively, on the one hand to check the correct electrode position, on the other hand to enable anatomically based fitting of the electrode contacts. Of the various possible localizations of the CDL measurements within the cochlear turns, the one on the organ of Corti (CDLOC) is the most frequently used and clinically most important. In the CDL measurement, a direct and indirect evaluation can be distinguished. There is also the possibility of reconstructing and measuring the CDL in 3D and calculating it mathematically, e.g. using spiral equations. In this context, measurements based on radiological imaging are gaining increasing importance. Therefore, if there is the possibility of performing higher-resolution imaging, this should be strived preoperatively in order to enable the most precise possible procedure and thus a good outcome. Otological planning software can help to create an interface between new findings regarding CDL measurement and higher-resolution imaging for an individualized cochlear implantation.
