However, head mirrors and otoscopes have the following disadvantages: 1. The viewing angle is limited; 2. It is impossible to observe the lesion at close range; 3. It is impossible to digitize the observed things

1. Due to the huge image display system, it can only be used in the endoscopic examination room and operating room of the hospital. It has no conditions for use in the outpatient clinic and is not convenient to move. Therefore, the outpatient doctor can only ask the patient to have an examination in the endoscopic room.
