Early experience with next-generation wireless technology for detecting cochlear implant electrode tip fold-over and placement without X-ray: nucleus SmartNav
SmartNav offers a highly sensitive and reliable method for detecting TFO during CI at least in normal cochlear anatomy, dramatically reducing the need for intraoperative X-ray, thereby decreasing anesthesia time and eliminating radiation exposure.
