Abstract

An embodiment of the invention discloses an ear vibration measurement method and device. An SLD (superluminescent diode) emits near infrared light, the near infrared light is transmitted to a sample arm and a reference arm through an OC (optical circulator); light of the reference arm is focused on a reference mirror through a pair of lenses, light of the sample arm is input into a handheld probe through an optical fiber and is scanned to a tympanic membrane and a stapes head below the tympanic membrane through a scan lens and a relay lens in the probe; light returning from the sample arm and the reference arm is transmitted to the OC through an optical fiber coupler; projection is performed to a line-scan digital camera through a lens and grating scattering. By means of a low-coherence characteristic of a broadband light source and tissue penetrability of the near infrared light, the high-resolution tomography technology for internal microstructure of biological tissue is developed to vibration measurement, and the current situation that the department of otology can only perform indirect detection on middle ear functions clinically is changed.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to the technical field of vibration measurement, and in particular to a method and device for measuring ear vibration. Background technique [0002] For the diagnosis of hearing impairment, the existing diagnostic methods are mainly indirect measurements in the external auditory canal, which cannot distinguish the location of the lesion. The vibration of the ossicular chain of the middle ear can only be detected with a laser vibrometer after the temporal bone is opened during surgery. It has a great impact on determining the appropriate middle ear reconstruction protocol. Therefore, there is an urgent clinical need for a method that can non-destructively detect the vibration of the ossicular chain through the tympanic membrane. Contents of the invention [0003] The purpose of the embodiments of the present invention is to provide a method and device for measuring ear vibration, aiming at solving the probl...
