Abstract

This paper describes a new technique for visualizing the organ of Corti in the living guinea pig. The various cell types and blood supply can be viewed at magnifications up to 625X through a microscope, as seen reflected by a tiny mirror in scala vestibuli. Glass microelectrodes can also be seen as they penetrate the tissues, and can be accurately localized.
