Reconstruction of the Posterior Membranous Labyrinth
Conditions
Keywords
3D model, Inner ear
Brief summary
The aim of this work is to create a three-dimensional (3D) finite element model (FEM) of the human posterior membranous labyrinth, based on in vivo inner ear magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). This model has a pedagogical interest, and can serve as a basis for reflection in cases of atypical benign paroxysmal positional vertigos. It can also serve for mechanical studies of vestibular physiology.
