Abstract
A method including causing current to flow from a first electrode of an intra-cochlea electrode array to a second electrode of the intra-cochlea electrode array at a plurality of temporal locations, measuring, at a third electrode and a fourth electrode of the intra-cochlea electrode array, a voltage induced by the flowing current at the plurality of temporal locations and determining that a change between the voltage measurements at the third electrode and the fourth electrode has occurred from the first temporal location to the second temporal location.
