Automated Analysis of Human Cochlea Shape Variability from segmented μCT images

The human cochlea is a spiral-shaped structure located in the inner ear. Essential organ of audition, its largest diameter is about  8.5 mm at the basal turn and its height about 7 mm (Dimopoulos and Muren, 1990). Cochlear structures include three scalae (or ducts) with complex morphology and showing interindividual variability in size and shape.
