| Research Abstract |
In the conductive hearing loss, there were no reports captured the actual movement of the middle ear as an image. So quantitative evaluation of middle ear function was difficult.
This time, through using a high-speed camera, we capture and analysis the stapes movement stimulated by sound. Sound waves from the ear canal can be accurately converted into vertical motion of the stapes in the middle ear. The frequency of the stapes movement was completely identical to the frequency of the stimulating tone under any conditions, biological or decapitated model, pathology or treatment model, the single or chord stimulation. By direct imaging of the middle ear using high-speed camera, we demonstrated that the middle ear work in hearing by the conversion efficiency to the amplitude of the stapes movement.
