发明名称 Cochlear implant electrode lead having a cross-section with variable height
摘要 An electrode lead for insertion into a patient's cochlea includes a substantially solid elongate carrier member having lateral and medial sides and opposing transverse surfaces extending between outer surfaces of the lateral and medial sides, wherein the carrier member has a thickness between outer surfaces of the lateral and medial sides, and a plurality of electrodes disposed on or in the medial side. A height of the lateral side between the transverse surfaces is generally greater than a height of the medial side between the transverse surfaces, wherein each of the heights is approximately perpendicular to the thickness.
