Estimation of the stapes-bone thickness in the stapedotomy surgical procedure using a machine-learning technique.

Estimation of the stapes-bone thickness in the stapedotomy surgical procedure using a machine-learning technique.

Stapedotomy is a surgical procedure aimed at the treatment of hearing impairment due to otosclerosis. The treatment consists of drilling a hole through the stapes bone in the inner ear in order to insert a prosthesis. Safety precautions require knowledge of the nonmeasurable stapes thickness. The te...
