Cochlear-bone wave can yield a hearing sensation as well as otoacoustic emission [PDF]
, 2014 A hearing sensation arises when the elastic basilar membrane inside the cochlea vibrates. The basilar membrane is typically set into motion through airborne sound that displaces the middle ear and induces a pressure difference across the membrane. A second, alternative pathway exists, however: stimulation of the cochlear bone vibrates the basilar ...

Mouse middle ear ion homeostasis channels and intercellular junctions. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The middle ear contains homeostatic mechanisms that control the movement of ions and fluids similar to those present in the inner ear, and are altered during inflammation.The normal middle ear cavity is fluid-free and air-filled to allow for effective ...

Structure and function of the mammalian middle ear. II: Inferring function from structure [PDF]
Journal of Anatomy, 2016 Anatomists and zoologists who study middle ear morphology are often interested to know what the structure of an ear can reveal about the auditory acuity and hearing range of the animal in question.

Structure and function of the mammalian middle ear. I: Large middle ears in small desert mammals [PDF]
Journal of Anatomy, 2016 Many species of small desert mammals are known to have expanded auditory bullae. The ears of gerbils and heteromyids have been well described, but much less is known about the middle ear anatomy of other desert mammals.

Integration of 3D-printed middle ear models and middle ear prostheses in otosurgical training [PDF]
BMC Medical EducationBackground In otosurgical training, cadaveric temporal bones are primarily used to provide a realistic tactile experience. However, using cadaveric temporal bones is challenging due to their limited availability, high cost, and potential for infection ...
