Histological modiolar plane sections and corresponding CT images were compared. Similar array positions were observed between histology and radiology. In (A,B) non-STL PM array. In (C,D) non-STL LW array. In (E,F) STL PM array. In (G,H) STL LW array. Note: the diameter of the array was increased 30–40% due to swelling of the silicon layer after processing with butyl methacrylate. Contrast of array was increased for visibility reasons.
