-
Stapes Prosthesis Sizing: The 4.5mm reference point is essential for determining the "piston" length required to restore conductive hearing without over-penetrating the vestibule.

Optimized for Microsurgery: The ultra-slim profile is designed to work seamlessly under a surgical microscope, ensuring the surgeon’s line of sight remains unobstructed during measurements.
