Close-up view of the posterior tympanotomy of a left ear displaying four stimulation positions: the standard Baha position, the lateral semi-circular canal, the promontory, and the posterior wall of the ear canal, along with the anatomical landmarks of the stapes and the round window. Left: schematic representation, Right: microscopic image of the mastoidectomy and posterior tympanotomy, the standard Baha position is not visible on this scale. Retroreflective tape is visible on the stapes and round window in the microscopic image. This tape was used during control measurements but was removed for subsequent measurements (see “Methods”).
