Abstract
The cochlear implant (CI) is a widely accepted option in patients with severe to profound hearing loss receiving limited benefit from traditional hearing aids. CI surgery uses a default setting for frequency allocation aiming to reproduce tonotopicity, thus mimicking the normal cochlea. One emerging instrument that may substantially help the surgeon before, during, and after the surgery is a surgical planning software product developed in collaboration by CASCINATION AG (Bern, Switzerland) and MED-EL (Innsbruck Austria). The aim of this narrative review is to present an overview of the main features of this otological planning software, called OTOPLAN®. The literature was searched on the PubMed and Web of Science databases. The search terms used were "OTOPLAN", "cochlear planning software" "three-dimensional imaging", "3D segmentation", and "cochlear implant" combined into different queries. This strategy yielded 52 publications, and a total of 31 studies were included. The review of the literature revealed that OTOPLAN is a useful tool for otologists and audiologists as it improves preoperative surgical planning both in adults and in children, guides the intraoperative procedure and allows postoperative evaluation of the CI.
人工耳蜗(CI)是严重至重度听力损失患者的一种广泛接受的选择,传统助听器的益处有限。CI手术使用频率分配的默认设置,旨在再现眼压性,从而模仿正常耳蜗。CASCINATION AG(瑞士伯尔尼)和MED-EL(奥地利因斯布鲁克)合作开发的手术计划软件产品是一种新兴的工具,可以在手术前、手术中和手术后对外科医生有很大帮助。本叙述性综述的目的是概述这种被称为OTOPLAN®的耳科规划软件的主要功能。文献检索在PubMed和Web of Science数据库中。使用的搜索词是“OTOPLAN”、“耳蜗规划软件”、“三维成像”、“3D分割”和“耳蜗植入物”,这些词组合成不同的查询。这一战略产生了52篇出版物,共纳入31项研究。文献综述显示,OTOPLAN对耳科医生和听力学家来说是一种有用的工具,因为它改善了成人和儿童的术前手术计划,指导了术中程序,并允许对CI进行术后评估。
期刊介绍:
The mission of Audiology Research is to publish contemporary, ethical, clinically relevant scientific researches related to the basic science and clinical aspects of the auditory and vestibular system and diseases of the ear that can be used by clinicians, scientists and specialists to improve understanding and treatment of patients with audiological and neurotological disorders.
