Automated Eardrum Registration From Light-Field Data

Pascal Frossard, Ivana Tosic, Sofia Karygianni

The performance of automated classification algorithms for medical images needs to be very high and especially robust in order to be adopted into healthcare. Most of the time the main challenge is unregistered data, since it is usually captured: 1) from di ...

Surgical Anatomy of the Human Round Window Region: Implication for Cochlear Endoscopy Through the External Auditory Canal

Demetri Psaltis, Simon Nessim Henein

Objective: To enable development of an endoscope for cellular-level optical imaging of the inner ear. Study Design: A prospective study of 50 cadaveric human temporal bones to define detailed surgical anatomy of the round window (RW) region and the range o ...

Abrogation of HMX1 Function Causes Rare Oculoauricular Syndrome Associated With Congenital Cataract, Anterior Segment Dysgenesis, and Retinal Dystrophy

PURPOSE. To define the phenotypic manifestation, confirm the genetic basis, and delineate the pathogenic mechanisms underlying an oculoauricular syndrome (OAS). METHODS. Two individuals from a consanguineous family underwent comprehensive clinical phenotyp ...

Active Control mitigating the Ear Canal Occlusion Effect caused by Hearing Aids

Thomas Stefan Zurbrügg

The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates the prevalence of a disabling hearing loss to be above 5% world-wide 1. A treatment with a hearing aid - be it behind-the-ear (BTE), in-the-ear (ITE) or receiver-in-canal (RIC) - involves some degree of occlusi ...

Normal Dendritic Cell Mobilization to Lymph Nodes under Conditions of Severe Lymphatic Hypoplasia

Melody Swartz, Joseph Rutkowski

To address the requirement for lymphatic capillaries in dendritic cell (DC) mobilization from skin to lymph nodes (LNs), we used mice bearing one inactivated allele of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 3 (VEGFR3) where skin lymphatic capillaries ...

Tissue and cellular imaging

Demetri Psaltis, Ye Pu, Ye Pu, Chia-Lung Hsieh, Xin Yang

Systems and methods for imaging ear tissue include: directing illumination radiation to pass through an intact biological structure and be incident on ear tissue that does not include an exogenous fluorophore, at a plurality of locations, the illumination ...

Design of a Semi-Implantable Hearing Device for Direct Acoustic Cochlear Stimulation

Yves Perriard, Hans Bernhard

A new hearing therapy based on direct acoustic cochlear stimulation was developed for the treatment of severe to profound mixed hearing loss. The device efficacy was validated in an initial clinical trial with four patients. This semi-implantable investiga ...

Potential novel drug carriers for inner ear treatment: hyperbranched polylysine and lipid nanocapsules

Harm-Anton Klok, Zuzana Kadlecova, Markus Scholl

Aim: Treatment of sensorineural hearing loss could be advanced using novel drug carriers such as hyperbranched polylysine (HBPL) or lipid nanocapsules (LNCs). This study examined HBPL and LNCs for their cellular uptake and possible toxicity in vitro and in ...

Mutation in the human homeobox gene NKX5-3 causes an oculo-auricular syndrome

Several dysmorphic syndromes affect the development of both the eye and the ear, but only a few are restricted to the eye and the external ear. We describe a developmental defect affecting the eye and the external ear in three members of a consanguineous f ...

A physical interpretation of the equal area rule

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein, Abraham Rubinstein

This paper presents a derivation and a physical interpretation of the equal area rule (EAR) for wire-grid simulation of surfaces. We propose a new procedure that leads to a formulation for obtaining the radii for an arbitrarily meshed surface. A simple com ...
