The Endoscopic Anatomy of the External Acoustic Meatus and of the Middle Ear in Dry Temporal Bones: A Study Conducted Using Digital and Mobile Device Technology
Abstract:Introduction The endoscopic anatomy of the middle ear (ME) and of the external acoustic meatus (EAM) has been described in cadavers, in fresh temporal bones, or in vivo using conventional video recording, but not in dry bones or using an alternative inspection and recording technique.
Objective To study the anatomy of the ME and of the EAM in dry temporal bones using a smartphone-endoscope system.
Methods The EAM and the ME were studied in dry temporal bones using an endoscopic transcanal a… Show more
