241 - Inside OTOPLAN: MED-EL’s Innovative Tool for Optimizing Cochlear Implant Results


Listen Later

OTOPLAN©, a specialized tool for surgeons and audiologists, enables 3D reconstructions of patients' cochleas using CT and MRI scans. This capability optimizes electrode array selection before surgery and enhances implant programming afterward. Since achieving FDA clearance in the U.S., OTOPLAN has been adopted by over 225 clinical centers, processing more than 3,200 scans and providing clinicians with precise anatomical insights that significantly improve patient outcomes.

Audiologist Katelyn Glassman explains how this collaboration between MED-EL and Cascination delivers critical anatomical data, allowing for greater accuracy in cochlear implant care, reducing variability in patient results, and boosting patient satisfaction.
