Postoperative Result for Tympanic Membrane Perforation
Ears with tympanic membrane perforation show a wide range of pathophysiology from simple perforation to mobility impairment of the ossicular chain complicated by sclerotic and/or inflammatory lesions of the middle ear. In surgery on such ears, we determine checkpoints and proceed based on the order of procedure.

In vivo imaging of middle-ear and inner-ear microstructures of a mouse guided by SD-OCT combined with a surgical microscope [PDF]
We developed an augmented-reality system that combines optical coherence tomography (OCT) with a surgical microscope. By sharing the common optical path in the microscope and OCT, we could simultaneously acquire OCT and microscope views.
