Self-Training Based Unsupervised Cross-Modality Domain Adaptation for Vestibular Schwannoma and Cochlea Segmentation [PDF]
With the advances of deep learning, many medical image segmentation studies achieve human-level performance when in fully supervised condition. However, it is extremely expensive to acquire annotation on every data in medical fields, especially on magnetic resonance images (MRI) that comprise many different contrasts. Unsupervised methods can alleviate

The Cochlear Tuning Curve [PDF]
The tuning curve of the cochlea measures how large an input is required to elicit a given output level as a function of the frequency. It is a fundamental object of auditory theory, for it summarizes how to infer what a sound was on the basis of the ...

Masculinization of the mammalian cochlea [PDF]
Otoacoustic emissions (OAEs) differ between the sexes in humans, rhesus and marmoset monkeys, and sheep. OAEs also are different in a number of special populations of humans. Those basic findings are reviewed and discussed in the context of possible prenatal-androgen effects on the auditory system.

Purinergic Signalling in the Cochlea
The mammalian cochlea is the sensory organ of hearing with a delicate, highly organised structure that supports unique operating mechanisms. ATP release from the secretory tissues of the cochlear lateral wall (stria vascularis) triggers numerous physiological responses by activating P2 receptors in sensory, supporting and neural tissues.

Mutations in the genes encoding for gap junction proteins connexin 26 (Cx26) and connexin 30 (Cx30) have been linked to syndromic and nonsyndromic hearing loss in mice and humans. The release of ATP from connexin hemichannels in cochlear nonsensory cells

Lycium barbarum glycopeptide (LBGP), which is further extracted from Lycium barbarum polysaccharides, exhibits significant protective effects against neomycin‐induced hearing dysfunction including oxidative stress in cochlea and loss of key cells in cochlea.

Heat transfer analysis in an uncoiled model of the cochlea during magnetic cochlear implant surgery [PDF]
Magnetic cochlear implant surgery requires removal of a magnet via a heating process after implant insertion, which may cause thermal trauma within the ear. Intra-cochlear heat transfer analysis is required to ensure that the magnet removal phase is thermally safe.

Unsupervised Cross-Modality Domain Adaptation for Segmenting Vestibular Schwannoma and Cochlea with Data Augmentation and Model Ensemble [PDF]
Magnetic resonance images (MRIs) are widely used to quantify vestibular schwannoma and the cochlea. Recently, deep learning methods have shown state-of-the-art performance for segmenting these structures. However, training segmentation models may require manual labels in target domain, which is expensive and time-consuming.

Waves on Reissner's membrane: a mechanism for the propagation of otoacoustic emissions from the cochlea [PDF]
Sound is detected and converted into electrical signals within the ear. The cochlea not only acts as a passive detector of sound, however, but can also produce tones itself. These otoacoustic emissions are a striking manifestation of the cochlea's mechanical active process.

Modified protein expression in the tectorial membrane of the cochlea reveals roles for the striated sheet matrix [PDF]
The tectorial membrane (TM) of the mammalian cochlea is a complex extracellular matrix which, in response to acoustic stimulation, displaces the hair bundles of outer hair cells (OHCs), thereby initiating sensory transduction and amplification.
