What is it about?
The anatomy-based fitting (ABF) method is designed to minimize the mismatch between the real tonotopic (anatomic) frequency and the frequency range stimulated by the electrode contact assigned by default to the cochlear implant processor.

Why is it important?
The aim of this prospective study was to compare the results of the traditional cochlear implant fitting method and the anatomy-based fitting method.
Perspectives
The Anatomy-Based Fit (ABF) method has been found to improve auditory and musical perception in both prelingual and postlingual cochlear implant users compared to traditional fitting methods.
