Illustrated guide to cochlear implant procedures and rehabilitation
Description:
The Beijing Society of Audiology has focused on the cochlear implant as the vital bridge connecting the silent and the audible, publishing a series of articles to disseminate scientific knowledge.
Covering everything from cochlear implantation surgery to device programming, and from auditory-verbal rehabilitation to user testimonials, the content is both professional and accessible. It breaks down core cochlear implant knowledge, shares insights from rehabilitation specialists, and voices the experiences and reflections of recipients. This ensures every cochlear implant user can ‘hear, hear clearly, understand, and enjoy listening – all explained in one go!’
