title: Scanning Electron Microscopy of the Inner Structure of the Organ of Corti and its Neural Pathways.
abstract: Scanning electron microscopy has been used by the author since 1968 and has become an important tool in the study of inner ear structures. By the combination of good preparation and microdissection, light and electron microscopy, we can better visualize the structure of the normal and pathologically altered organ of Corti and also the vestibular sensory regions. In the present publication it is shown that good preparation permits a study of the inner of the organ of Corti and also of the neural pathways not only in the organ of Corti but also in the osseous spiral lamina and in the modiolus.
