The 24 pages that link to Cochlea, each with the reason it gives.

• Vestibular systemCompared with: It shares the inner ear's architecture but serves hearing rather than balance.

• Cochlear implantNarrower topic: The implant's electrode array is placed inside this structure.

• Hair cellNarrower topic: Its sensory epithelium contains hair cells tuned to different sound frequencies.

• Sensorineural hearing lossBroader topic: Its sensory structures are the most common site of sensorineural damage.

• AudiometryRelated: Its frequency-selective function underlies many audiometric thresholds.

• TinnitusBroader topic: Damage to cochlear cells can alter the input reaching auditory pathways.

• Noise-induced hearing lossBroader topic: Its sensory structures bear the mechanical and metabolic stress of intense sound.

• OtotoxicityBroader topic: Many ototoxic exposures damage its sensory cells, disrupting hearing.

• Auditory nerveNarrower topic: The auditory nerve carries signals generated within this organ.

• Auditory systemBroader topic: Its fluid and sensory cells begin converting sound into neural signals.

• Auditory cortexNarrower topic: Cortical sound analysis begins with frequency-coded signals generated in the cochlea.

• Auditory perceptionRelated: Its frequency-sensitive mechanics provide the input for auditory interpretation.

• Otoacoustic emissionsNarrower topic: Otoacoustic emissions arise from active processes within this organ.

• TonotopyBroader topic: Its spatial frequency map is the canonical example of tonotopy.

• MammaliaformesRelated: Changes in cochlear structure accompany the refinement of mammaliaform hearing.

• PresbycusisBroader topic: Its sensory structures are central sites of the damage associated with presbycusis.

• Acoustic traumaBroader topic: Its sensory cells are a major site of noise-related injury.

• Basilar membraneNarrower topic: The basilar membrane runs through the cochlea and forms part of its hearing apparatus.

• Inner earBroader topic: Its sensory epithelium separates incoming sound frequencies along the cochlear spiral.

• EarBroader topic: Its hair cells translate incoming vibrations into signals the brain can interpret as sound.

• EardrumRelated: Vibrations passing through the eardrum and ossicles ultimately reach the cochlea.

• StapesRelated: Vibrations from the stapes set cochlear fluids in motion.

• Georg von BékésyBroader topic: Békésy mapped how vibrations travel through this structure.

• Microwave auditory effectRelated: Pressure waves reach the cochlea and can activate its sensory structures.
