Pilot study of a device for measuring instrument forces during endoscopic sinus surgery.

abstract：CONCLUSION:Cochlear implantation assessment is possible using commercially available standard flat-detector computed tomography (FD-CT) protocols. Image quality is superior to multislice CT (MSCT). The radiation dose of FD-CT is lower in comparison with MSCT standard protocols and may therefore overcome the limitations...
