Dimensions of the scala vestibuli and sectional areas of both scales.
Height and width of the scala vestibuli were measured on resin casts at seven different places, beginning at the round window up to 1 3/4 turns of the cochlea. These figures do not decrease continuously but are augmented at certain places. The sectional areas of both scales show the same result according to the transient increases of height and width.
