  • Title: Optical imaging of cat auditory cortical organization after electrical stimulation of a multichannel cochlear implant: differential effects of acute and chronic stimulation.
    Author: Dinse HR, Reuter G, Cords SM, Godde B, Hilger T, Lenarz T.
    Journal: Am J Otol; 1997 Nov; 18(6 Suppl):S17-8. PubMed ID: 9391580.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To study the effects of electrical stimulation on cortical activation patterns. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Optical imaging of auditory cortex in cats that are acutely and chronically electrically stimulated with cochlear implants. RESULTS: Chronic electrical stimulation results in expansion of cortical territory and overlap. CONCLUSION: Effects of chronic electrical stimulation are comparable to use-dependent cortical plastic reorganization.
