This project aims to develop a miniaturized imaging probe using optical coherence tomography to visualize and quantify the middle ear's structure and vibrations. The technology will enable better diagnosis of conductive hearing loss by capturing high-frequency oscillations and examining ear infections.
Various pathologies directly impede the conduction of sound through the human middle ear, and thereby produce a ‘conductive’ hearing loss which is the second most prevalent health issue globally.
According to Hearing Health Foundation more than 360 million people suffer from hearing disorders worldwide.
Hearing depends on a series of events that change sound waves in the air into electrical signals.
Sounds that travel down the ear canal set the surface of the flexible eardrum or tympanic membran…
