Visual perception of the osseous labyrinth rendered from micro-CT scans of the petrous bone [PDF]
Grayscale images comparing to the color images may have less of visual information necessary for easy recognition of the anatomical structures. Although micro-CT scanners deliver images of ultra-high resolution, application of false-colors to the ...

The evolution of the vestibular apparatus in apes and humans [PDF]
Phylogenetic relationships among extinct hominoids (apes and humans) are controversial due to pervasive homoplasy and the incompleteness of the fossil record.

Semicircular canals shed light on bottleneck events in the evolution of the Neanderthal clade
Revealing the evolutionary processes which resulted in the derived morphologies that characterize the Neanderthal clade has been an important task for paleoanthropologists. One critical method to quantify evolutionary changes in the morphology of hominin

Patterns of Signal Intensity in CISS MRI of the Inner Ear and Eye
Background: Constructive interference in steady state (CISS) is a gradient echo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) pulse sequence that provides excellent contrast between cerebrospinal fluid and adjacent structures but is prone to banding artifacts due to ...

Is endolymphatic hydrops, as detected in MRI, a truly cochleocentric finding?
IntroductionThe most common histopathological finding in Ménière’s disease (MD) is endolymphatic hydrops (EH), which involves the dilation of the membranous labyrinth. The direct relationship between EH and MD is debated, although EH plays a crucial role

Sounds produced by the left and right so nic organ differ in croaking gouramis (Trichopsis vittata, Labyrinth fishes). Abstract Songbirds and toothed whales are able to produce different sounds with the left and right part of their sonic organs, a phenomenon termed lateralized sound production.

Advanced Imaging of the Vestibular Endolymphatic Space in Ménière's Disease
The diagnosis of “definite” Méniére's disease (MD) relies upon its clinical manifestations. MD has been related with Endolymphatic Hydrops (EH), an enlargement of the endolymphatic spaces (ES) (cochlear duct, posterior labyrinth, or both).

‘Ear stones’ in crocodylians: a cross-species comparative and ontogenetic survey of otolith structures [PDF]
The vestibular system of the inner ear is a crucial sensory organ, involved in the sensation of balance and equilibrium. It consists of three semicircular canals that sense angular rotations of the head and the vestibule that detects linear acceleration ...
