Cochlear implant electrode-array portfolio used with Advanced Bionics HiRes Ultra and Ultra 3D internal implants, including straight SlimJ and precurved Mid-Scala variants designed for cochlear coverage and atraumatic insertion.

Hearing Loss Sensorineural Hearing Loss Cochlear Implant

Notes

Separates the implant electrode portfolio from the broader HiRes Ultra 3D/Marvel CI platform so electrode-design coverage is not limited to processor and receiver-stimulator rows.
