Die Patienten messen ihren harten Ohren vermutlich nicht viel Bedeutung bei oder haben sich schon eigene Erklärungsmodelle zureichtgelegt. Wer jedoch einmal solche steinharten Ohren angefasst hat, wird dieses Engramm lange mit sich tragen.

...will bear this engram with them for a long while
engram = image, but in this case, it is tactile so image doesn't work as well.
However, engram is an English word.
And yes, the word is used in scientology...

: Indeed. Also, popularly referred to as "memory unit," and described by analogy to a hologram. (Not the first scientific concept/expression hijacked by various cultists, incidentally.)
