Relative Indications for Radiosurgery and Microsurgery for Acoustic Schwannoma

2003
The physical and biological principles underlying the use of radiosurgery for the treatment of vestibular schwannomas of up to 2.5 cm in diameter are reviewed together with the historical controversies that have surrounded its introduction. The results in terms of mortality, quality of life, preservation of facial movement and hearing, incidence of ...

Acoustic indices fail to represent different facets of biodiversity

Ecological Indicators
Acoustic indices are cost-efficient tools for monitoring acoustically active taxa. Despite their increasing popularity, their suitability as biodiversity proxies remains debated due to theoretical and practical issues. Existing research has predominantly focused on assessing their capacity to capture species richness and abundance of sounds, with ...

Indications for Diagnostic Labyrinthotomy: In Acoustic Neurinoma Suspects

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1971
Diagnostic labyrinthotomy is indicated in acoustic neurinoma suspects: (1) when there is a progressive unilateral sensorineural loss and the laminograms of the internal auditory canals show no abnormalities; (2) when the posterior fossa contrast study is equivocal or unsatisfactory; (3) when there is a question of whether the filling defect represents ...

Towards acoustic indicators for soundscape design

2014
Scientific research on how people perceive, experience or understand the acoustic environment as a whole (i.e., soundscape) is still in development, both with regards to acoustic properties, as wel ...

Iodine Release as an Indicator of Acoustic Cavitation

1983 Ultrasonics Symposium, 1983
A spectrophotometric and a radioacti ve-1 abel The exposure system was a glass technique were used to assess acoustically induced iodine release. test tube insonated transversely with a 1 MHz ultrasound source. The medium used for the assays was 5.0 mM sodium iodide in the presence of carbon tetrachloride.

Preservation of Hearing in Acoustic Tumor Surgery: Audiologic Indicators

Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 1988
Preservation of hearing in patients with acoustic nerve tumors can be a goal when tumor size is small and residual hearing is intact. Overall success rates for preservation have been reported to be 20% to 40%. The overall success rate in this series is 30.7%.

Acoustic Indicators for Mapping Infestation Probabilities of Soil Invertebrates

Journal of Economic Entomology, 2007
Acoustic and traditional excavation methods were used in consecutive summers to conduct two geospatial surveys of distributions of white grubs and other soil invertebrates in two forage fields. Indicator variables were constructed from listener- and computer-based assessments of sounds detected at each recording site and then applied in geostatistical ...

Acoustical properties of speech as indicators of depression and suicidal risk

IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering, 2000
Acoustic properties of speech have previously been identified as possible cues to depression, and there is evidence that certain vocal parameters may be used further to objectively discriminate between depressed and suicidal speech. Studies were performed to analyze and compare the speech acoustics of separate male and female samples comprised of ...

The relationship between the temporal indicators of the acoustic reflex in infants

Russian Bulletin of Otorhinolaryngology
Recording the latency of the stapedial muscle acoustic reflex is one of the methods for detecting retrocochlear pathology in adults. There is insufficient literature on the characteristics of recording the latency of the stapedial muscle acoustic reflex in infants. Objective.
