Fig. 2From: A contrastive analysis of laser heating between the human and guinea pig cochlea by numerical simulationsTemperature change (ΔTA, ΔTO) at two typical sites (A and O as marked in Fig. 1) in the cochlea of the guinea pig (laser pulse energy E = 45 μJ with pulse rates of 50 Hz). Site A represents the nerve layer, 100 μm underneath the osseous spiral lamina, and site O represents the center of the modiolus. The bold solid line and dash line stand for the peak temperature rise at site A and site O respectivelyBack to article page
