耳小骨可動性の定量的評価に向けた耳科探針用アタッチメントの開発
The ossicular chain, which consists of the malleus, the incus and the stapes, plays an important role in hearing. If the ossicles become fixed somewhere, hearing loss occurs. In order to improve the level of hearing, the fixed part of the ossicles must be sufficiently recovered or replaced. Evaluating the mobility of the stapes is important during the tympanoplasty surgery, because the ossicular mobility affects the prognosis for the improvement of the hearing level. However, an objective
