[0047] First, an embodiment of the present application provides a method for monitoring otoscope examination, which includes: receiving an inspection instruction carrying an inspection identifier, and obtaining otoscope examination data when the otoscope is inspecting in the ear based on the inspection identifier; extracting an otoscope examination image based on the otoscope examination data; identifying the otoscope examination image, and when the external auditory canal is identified, monitoring the mirror advancement speed in real time, and determining the first moment of identifying the external auditory canal and the entrance area of the external auditory canal; identifying the otoscope examination image, and when the tympanic membrane is identified, identifying the light cone and / or the malleus, and when the light cone and / or the malleus are identified, determining the identification time. to the second moment of the light cone and / or the malleus and the effective area in the ear; use different types of segmentation models to segment the abnormal area in the otoscope examination image, and determine the third moment when the abnormal area appears, the area of the abnormal area and the abnormal image data; determine the mirror advancement parameters according to the first moment, the second moment and the mirror advancement speed; determine the abnormal parameters in the ear according to the first moment, the third moment, the mirror advancement speed, the entrance area of the external auditory canal, the area of the abnormal area and the effective area in the ear; and provide prompts based on the abnormal image data, the mirror advancement parameters and the abnormal parameters in the ear.

[0048] like Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 1 is a flow chart of an embodiment of a method for monitoring otoscopy in an embodiment of the present application. The method for monitoring otoscopy includes the following steps S201 to S208:

[0049] S201: receiving an inspection instruction carrying an inspection identifier, and acquiring otoscope inspection data when the otoscope is inspecting inside the ear based on the inspection identifier.

[0050] Specifically, the inspection instruction refers to an instruction for performing an otoscope examination or an instruction for monitoring an otoscope examination. The inspection instruction includes instructions input in a variety of ways. For example, the otoscope can communicate with or physically connect the otoscope to a computer device to achieve information interaction. The inspection instruction can be input by clicking on the otoscope or entering it into the computer device, including but not limited to voice input, fingerprint input, and key input, so that the otoscope examination process can be monitored according to the inspection instruction.

[0051] Specifically, the inspection identifier refers to the identifier carried by the inspection instruction. This identifier can determine the inspection to be performed by the inspection instruction. Accordingly, it can directly or indirectly determine the processing method and data to be processed, so that corresponding processing can be performed according to the inspection identifier. The inspection identifier can also be determined by parsing the inspection instruction.

[0052] Specifically, the inspection identifier may include content such as "otoscope", "otoscope examination", "otoscope examination monitoring", etc., so that after receiving the inspection identifier, the content that needs to be monitored can be determined.

[0053] In one embodiment, the otoscope examination data includes video data during the otoscope examination, and may also include image data during the otoscope examination. The otoscope examination data may be determined based on data collected during the otoscope examination.

[0054] Specifically, for example, when performing an otoscope examination, a video can be captured through the otoscope to obtain video data of the otoscope examination, and multiple otoscope image data can also be obtained based on the doctor's images.

[0055] S202: Extracting an otoscope examination image based on the otoscope examination data.

[0056] Specifically, after obtaining the otoscope examination data, the video data in the otoscope examination data can be parsed to obtain the otoscope examination image, or the otoscope image data can be directly processed to obtain the otoscope examination image.

[0057] Specifically, the video data in the otoscope examination data can be parsed at 24 frames per second to obtain the otoscope examination image. When parsing the video data in the otoscope examination data, multiple frame images can also be deduplicated to obtain the otoscope examination image.

[0058] S203: Identify the otoscope examination image, and when the external auditory canal is identified, monitor the speed of the otoscope advancement in real time, and determine the first moment of identifying the external auditory canal and the area of the external auditory canal entrance.

[0059] Specifically, during the monitoring of the otoscope examination, it is necessary to monitor the parameters of the mirror insertion and the foreign objects or lesions present during the insertion process, while the foreign objects or lesions located in the auricle can be viewed intuitively, and the parameters of the otoscope insertion when it is at the auricle do not affect the examination results. Therefore, it is necessary to identify the external auditory canal to start monitoring the otoscope examination process, monitor the parameters of the mirror insertion and foreign objects or lesions in the external auditory canal, so as to monitor and prompt the doctor, improve the examination effect, and avoid missed detection.

[0060] In one embodiment, an initial in-ear / out-ear recognition model can be set, using VGG16, Resnet, or Inception. The labels can be set to "out-ear" and "in-ear." The dataset uses otoscope images to train the initial in-ear / out-ear recognition model, thereby obtaining a trained in-ear / out-ear recognition model. The trained in-ear / out-ear recognition model can then be used to recognize otoscope examination images. When the external auditory canal is identified, the speed of the mirror's advancement is monitored in real time, and the first moment of identification of the external auditory canal and the area of the external auditory canal entrance are determined.

[0061] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the ear. The ear includes the outer ear, middle ear and inner ear. The inner ear includes the semicircular canals, facial nerve, auditory nerve, cochlea, vestibule and Eustachian tube. The inner ear is connected to other organs. The auricle and mastoid located in the outer ear can be visually viewed when there are foreign objects or lesions. The otoscope examination process mainly involves entering the external auditory canal through the otoscope and examining the external auditory canal, tympanic membrane and various structures in the tympanic cavity. Therefore, the external auditory canal can be automatically identified to monitor the otoscope examination process.

[0062] Specifically, real-time monitoring of the speed of inserting the otoscope refers to real-time monitoring of the speed at which the doctor inserts the otoscope, and real-time monitoring can be achieved by processing images.

[0063] Specifically, the first moment refers to the moment when the external auditory canal is identified. The timing can be started from this moment and this moment can be used as the first moment. For example, taking Beijing time as an example, the moment when the external auditory canal is identified is 15:06:51, then the first moment can be 15:06:51; or the first moment can be directly set to 00:00:00, and subsequent moments can be timed based on the first moment.

[0064] Specifically, Figure 3 For example, the entrance area of the external auditory canal refers to the area from top to bottom where the external auditory canal and the auricle meet.

[0065] Specifically, the area of the external auditory canal entrance can be determined using an external auditory canal entrance segmentation model. A preset external auditory canal entrance segmentation model can be selected, including Unet++, Mask-rcnn, and Faster R-CNN. The label is outlined by the otoscopy doctor. The dataset uses otoscope images to train the initial external auditory canal entrance segmentation model to obtain a trained external auditory canal entrance segmentation model. Then, when the external auditory canal is identified, the trained external auditory canal entrance segmentation model can be used to segment and process the otoscope examination image to obtain the external auditory canal entrance area.

[0066] S204: Identify the otoscope examination image, and when the tympanic membrane is identified, identify the light cone and / or the malleus, and when the light cone and / or the malleus are identified, determine the second moment when the light cone and / or the malleus are identified and the effective area in the ear.

[0067] Specifically, after identifying the external auditory canal, the eardrum can be identified to monitor the parameters of the endoscope insertion. The doctor can be prompted by identifying the eardrum to avoid damaging the patient's eardrum during endoscope insertion, thereby improving the safety of the endoscope insertion process.

[0068] Specifically, you can set an initial tympanic membrane recognition model, using VGG16, Resnet, or Inception. Set the label to non-tympanic membrane or tympanic membrane. Use otoscope images as the dataset to train the initial tympanic membrane recognition model and obtain a trained tympanic membrane recognition model. The trained tympanic membrane recognition model can then be used to recognize otoscope examination images. When the tympanic membrane is recognized, subsequent actions can be taken or a prompt can be provided to the doctor.

[0069] In one embodiment, the steps of identifying the otoscope examination image, identifying the light cone and / or the malleus when the tympanic membrane is identified, and determining the second moment and the effective area in the ear when the light cone and / or the malleus are identified, include: identifying the otoscope examination image, giving a prompt when the tympanic membrane is identified, and using a tympanic membrane abnormality recognition model to identify the otoscope examination image to obtain tympanic membrane abnormality recognition data; giving a prompt when the tympanic membrane abnormality recognition data represents the tympanic membrane abnormality; identifying the light cone and / or the malleus, and determining the second moment and the effective area in the ear when the light cone and / or the malleus are identified, and using a tympanic cavity abnormality recognition model to identify the otoscope examination image to obtain tympanic cavity abnormality recognition data; and giving a prompt when the tympanic cavity abnormality recognition data represents the tympanic cavity abnormality. After the eardrum is identified, the doctor can be prompted, and abnormalities in the eardrum and tympanic cavity can be identified, providing prompts and auxiliary examinations to the doctor to avoid missed detection or damage to the patient's ears.

[0070] Specifically, when recognizing the otoscope examination image, a prompt can be given when the eardrum is recognized, so that the doctor can take appropriate measures according to the prompt, such as stopping the doctor from inserting the endoscope to avoid damaging the eardrum. The doctor can also observe the eardrum and tympanic cavity according to the prompt to avoid omissions or the inability to observe the eardrum and tympanic cavity due to being too far away from the eardrum.

[0071] Specifically, when using the tympanic membrane abnormality recognition model to identify the tympanic membrane, an initial tympanic membrane abnormality recognition model can be set. VGG16, Resnet, Inception can be selected. The labels are tympanic membrane abnormality and tympanic membrane normal, which can specifically include tympanic membrane rupture and no rupture. The data set uses tympanic membrane images to train the initial tympanic membrane abnormality recognition model to obtain the trained tympanic membrane abnormality recognition model, and the tympanic membrane abnormality recognition model is used to recognize the tympanic membrane image in the otoscope examination image. A prompt can be given when a tympanic membrane abnormality is identified. For example, if an abnormality is identified on the tympanic membrane, the doctor can be prompted to observe to determine whether an abnormality occurs, thereby improving the accuracy of the examination.

[0072] Specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown in the figure, a complete tympanic membrane and a perforated tympanic membrane are shown. The tympanic membrane image in the otoscope examination image can be identified by the tympanic membrane abnormality recognition model. When a perforated tympanic membrane is identified, a prompt can be given to indicate that it may be a perforated tympanic membrane, so that the doctor can observe further and avoid missed detection.

[0073] Specifically, after the tympanic membrane is identified, the light cone and / or the malleus can be identified to monitor the parameters of the endoscope insertion, and the status inside the ear can be monitored, so as to prompt the doctor based on the endoscope insertion parameters and the status inside the ear; and after the light cone and / or the malleus are identified, the doctor can stop inserting the endoscope and be prompted to observe the tympanic cavity to avoid missed detection.

[0074] Specifically, an initial light cone and / or malleus recognition model can be set. Resnet50 can be selected, with labels set to Other, Light Cone, and Malleus. The dataset uses tympanic membrane images to train the initial light cone and / or malleus recognition model, resulting in a trained light cone and / or malleus recognition model. The trained light cone and / or malleus recognition model can then be used to recognize tympanic membrane images. When the light cone and / or malleus are recognized, subsequent procedures can be performed or a prompt can be provided to the physician.

[0075] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, the tympanic membrane includes the light cone, the tense part, the umbilicus, the anterior fold of the malleus, the posterior fold of the malleus, the flaccid part, and the hammer pattern. The light cone and the anterior fold of the malleus and the posterior fold of the malleus can be identified to determine whether the light cone and / or the malleus are identified, so as to perform subsequent operations or provide prompts to the doctor.

[0076] Specifically, after identifying the light cone and / or malleus, the second moment and the effective area inside the ear are determined. The entry parameters of the mirror can be determined based on the first moment and second moment of entering the external auditory canal, so that corresponding processing can be performed, and prompts can be given through the effective area inside the ear and the area of the foreign body, making the detection results more accurate.

[0077] Specifically, the second moment refers to the moment when the light cone and / or malleus is identified. Please refer to the description of the first moment. For example, if the first moment is based on Beijing time, then the second moment is also based on Beijing time, which makes it easier to determine the lens advancement parameters. Similarly, if the first moment is based on the set benchmark, then the second moment is determined based on the benchmark of the first moment, which makes it easier to determine the lens advancement parameters. Similarly, the third moment can be determined with reference to the determination method of the second moment, which will not be repeated in the following embodiments.

[0078] Specifically, the effective area inside the ear refers to the total area of the effective image inside the ear from the external auditory canal to the identification of the light cone and / or malleus, and after the end of the endoscope, the state inside the ear can be determined based on the effective area inside the ear and the area of the foreign body, and prompts can be given based on the state inside the ear.

[0079] Specifically, after identifying the light cone and / or hammer bone, the tympanic cavity image in the otoscope examination image can be identified through the tympanic cavity abnormality recognition model, the status inside the tympanic cavity can be monitored, and prompts can be given based on the status inside the tympanic cavity, so that the doctor can observe according to the prompts, avoid missed detection problems, and improve the examination effect.

[0080] Specifically, an initial tympanic cavity abnormality recognition model can be set. VGG16, Resnet, and Inception can be selected. The labels are effusion and no effusion. The data set uses tympanic cavity images to train the initial tympanic cavity abnormality recognition model to obtain the trained tympanic cavity abnormality recognition model. The tympanic cavity abnormality recognition model is used to recognize the tympanic cavity image in the otoscope examination image, and a prompt can be given when a tympanic cavity abnormality is recognized. For example, if effusion is recognized on the tympanic cavity, the doctor can be prompted to observe to determine whether an abnormality occurs, thereby improving the accuracy of the examination.

[0081] S205: Segment the abnormal region in the otoscope examination image using different types of segmentation models, and determine the third moment when the abnormal region appears, the area of the abnormal region, and abnormal image data.

[0082] Specifically, when processing otoscope examination images, different types of segmentation models can be used to segment the abnormal areas when abnormal areas are identified, so as to determine the location information of the abnormal areas according to the time when the abnormal areas appear, so as to facilitate the processing of the abnormal areas, and provide prompts based on the area of the abnormal areas and the abnormal image data, so as to assist doctors in processing, avoid missed detections, and improve the efficiency of the examination.

[0083] In one embodiment, the abnormal region includes an impurity region and a lesion to be determined region. The steps of using different types of segmentation models to segment the abnormal region in the otoscope examination image and determining the third moment of appearance of the abnormal region, the area of the abnormal region, and abnormal image data include: using an impurity segmentation model to segment the abnormal region in the otoscope examination image and determine the area of the impurity region; and using a lesion segmentation model to segment the abnormal region in the otoscope examination image and determine the third moment of appearance of the lesion to be determined region, the area of the lesion to be determined region, and lesion image data. By using the impurity segmentation model and the lesion segmentation model to segment the impurities and lesion to be determined region in the otoscope examination image, different prompts and processing can be performed according to the impurities and lesions, thereby improving processing efficiency and inspection accuracy and avoiding missed detection.

[0084] Specifically, an initial dirt segmentation model can be preset, with options such as Unet++, Mask-rcnn, or FasterR-CNN. The doctor then labels the dirt boundary, trains the initial dirt segmentation model, and uses it to segment the dirt region in the otoscope examination image to determine the area of the dirt region. Furthermore, a single image can be selected from the otoscope examination image to calculate the effective area of the otoscope.

[0085] Specifically, the unclean matter may include earwax, hair, and the like.

[0086] Specifically, an initial lesion segmentation model can be preset. The initial lesion segmentation model includes an initial lesion region segmentation model and an initial lesion recognition model. The initial lesion region segmentation model can be selected from Unet++, Mask-rcnn, or Faster R-CNN. The doctor outlines the lesion region boundary by labeling it. The initial lesion region segmentation model is trained to obtain a trained lesion region segmentation model. The initial lesion recognition model can be selected from Resnet50, with labels such as congestion, eczema, hemorrhage, inflammation, and tumor. The dataset is the image data segmented by the lesion region segmentation model. The initial lesion recognition model is trained to obtain a trained lesion recognition model, thereby obtaining a lesion segmentation model and providing prompts and processing based on different lesion types and areas.

[0087] In one embodiment, the lesion area to be determined includes a first lesion type area and a second lesion type area; the steps of using a lesion segmentation model to segment the abnormal area in the otoscope examination image and determining the third moment when the lesion area to be determined appears, the area of the lesion area to be determined, and lesion image data include: using a lesion segmentation model to segment the abnormal area in the otoscope examination image and determine the area of the lesion area to be determined; when the area of the lesion area to be determined changes, determine it as the first lesion type area; give a prompt; when the area of the lesion area to be determined does not change, determine it as the second lesion type area; determine the third moment when the lesion area to be determined appears, and lesion image data. By judging the change in the area of the lesion area to be determined, when the area of the lesion area to be determined changes, determine it as the first lesion type area, and when the area of the lesion area to be determined does not change, determine it as the second lesion type area, so that prompts can be given according to different lesion types to perform different processing.

[0088] Specifically, the first lesion type area may be a bleeding area. After segmenting the abnormal area using the lesion segmentation model, the lesion type of the abnormal area can be identified. For example, if it is likely bleeding, the change in area can be used to confirm the presence of bleeding. This can prompt the doctor to stop the bleeding promptly to avoid damaging the patient's ear or affecting subsequent examinations. If the area of the undetermined lesion area does not change, it may indicate another abnormality. The doctor can observe the abnormality and then take appropriate measures or inform the patient to avoid missed examinations.

[0089] S206: Determine the mirror advance parameters according to the first moment, the second moment, and the mirror advance speed.

[0090] Specifically, during the otoscope examination, the mirror advancement speed and the length of time the mirror is advanced will result in poor results in the examination process and may lead to missed detections. Therefore, the mirror advancement parameters can be determined based on the first moment, the second moment and the mirror advancement speed, so that the doctor can be prompted based on the mirror advancement parameters, so that the doctor can take action based on the prompts, such as re-examination or reducing the mirror advancement speed, thereby improving the accuracy of the examination results.

[0091] In one embodiment, the step of determining the otoscope entry parameters based on the first moment, the second moment, and the otoscope entry speed includes: determining the actual otoscope entry time based on the first moment and the second moment; obtaining the preset otoscope entry time and preset otoscope entry speed of the otoscope; and determining the otoscope entry parameters based on the actual otoscope entry time, the preset otoscope entry time, the otoscope entry speed, and the preset otoscope entry speed of the otoscope. By determining the actual otoscope entry time of each recorded moment and recording the otoscope entry speed, the otoscope entry parameters can be determined based on the actual otoscope entry time, the preset otoscope entry time, the otoscope entry speed, and the preset otoscope entry speed, so as to prompt the doctor based on the otoscope entry parameters.

[0092] Specifically, the preset lens entry time can be determined based on historical data. For example, if the lens entry time is less than 60 seconds, the inspection effect is poor, then the preset lens entry time can be set to 60 seconds. Similarly, the preset lens entry speed can be determined based on historical data.

[0093] S207: Determine the abnormality parameters in the ear according to the first moment, the third moment, the speed of the microscope advancement, the area of the entrance of the external auditory canal, the area of the abnormal region, and the effective area in the ear.

[0094] Specifically, when an abnormality occurs in the ear, the doctor can be prompted by determining the location of the abnormal area and the relative size of the abnormal area, so that the doctor can refer to the determined location and the relative size of the abnormal area during subsequent processing, and the doctor can be prompted to the area where the abnormality occurs to avoid missed detection.

[0095] In one embodiment, the step of determining the abnormal parameters in the ear based on the first moment, the third moment, the mirror advancement speed, the area of the external auditory canal entrance, the area of the abnormal region, and the effective area in the ear includes: determining the position information of the area where the lesion is to be determined based on the first moment, the third moment, and the mirror advancement speed; determining the relative value of the area where the lesion is to be determined based on the area of the external auditory canal entrance and the area of the area where the lesion is to be determined; obtaining a preset value; and determining the abnormal parameters in the ear based on the relative value and the preset value. By determining the position information of the area where the lesion is to be determined, the doctor can directly observe and process according to the position information during the operation, thereby improving the efficiency of the otoscope examination. At the same time, by determining the relative value of the area of the external auditory canal entrance and the area of the area where the lesion is to be determined, and determining the abnormal parameters in the ear based on the relative value and the preset value, the doctor can be assisted in determining the degree of the abnormality based on the abnormal parameters in the ear, thereby assisting the doctor in processing and informing the patient.

[0096] Specifically, the first moment is t0, the third moment is t i , the mirror speed is v t For example, we can use the time interval [t0, ti ]Mirror speed v t Integrate to obtain the distance d between the lesion area to be determined and the entrance of the external auditory canal. The formula is as follows: Determine the location information of the area where the lesion is to be determined.

[0097] Specifically, the ratio of the area of the lesion to be determined to the area of the external auditory canal entrance is used as a relative value. Then, according to the relative value and the preset value, for example, The area of the lesion to be determined is S Z , the area of the entrance to the external auditory canal is Aera, and the ratio of the area of the lesion area to be determined to the area of the entrance to the external auditory canal can be used as the relative value τ. According to the relative value τ and the preset value β, the abnormal parameters in the ear are determined.

[0098] Specifically, for example, if the identification result of the lesion area to be determined is a tumor, the size of the tumor can be judged based on the relative value, thereby determining the risk level of the tumor, such as whether direct surgery, drug treatment or other methods are needed to assist doctors in examination.

[0099] In one embodiment, the preset value can be determined based on historical data. For example, when the ratio of the two is greater than 0.1, the tumor risk level is high, and the preset value can be 0.1.

[0100] In one embodiment, the abnormal area is an area of unclean objects, and the step of determining the abnormal parameters in the ear based on the first moment, the third moment, the speed of the mirror advancement, the area of the entrance of the external auditory canal, the area of the abnormal area, and the effective area in the ear includes: determining the cleanliness of the ear canal based on the area of the unclean area and the effective area in the ear; obtaining a preset cleanliness; and determining the abnormal parameters in the ear based on the cleanliness of the ear canal and the preset cleanliness. When the abnormal area is an area of unclean objects, the cleanliness of the ear canal can be determined by the area of the unclean area and the effective area in the ear, and the abnormal parameters in the ear can be determined based on the cleanliness of the ear canal and the preset cleanliness. When the cleanliness of the ear canal does not meet the requirements, the doctor can re-examine the ear to avoid missed inspections or inaccurate inspections.

[0101] Specifically, the preset cleanliness level can be determined based on historical data. For example, when the cleanliness level is lower than a certain level, unclean objects may block the structure inside the ear, making it impossible to observe the lesion and resulting in missed detection. In this case, the cleanliness level can be set as the preset cleanliness level.

[0102] Specifically, the ear canal cleanliness is ψ, the effective area inside the ear is S, and the area of a single unclean area is A. i , the formula for ear canal cleanliness is as follows: By comparing the ear canal cleanliness ψ with the preset cleanliness δ, it is determined whether the ear canal cleanliness meets the requirements. If the ear canal cleanliness does not meet the requirements, a prompt will be given.

[0103] S208: Prompt based on abnormal image data, scope insertion parameters and abnormal parameters in the ear.

[0104] Specifically, after determining abnormal image data, endoscope parameters and abnormal parameters in the ear, prompts can be given based on the above parameters, so that the doctor can take corresponding measures or conduct further inspections to avoid missed inspections and improve inspection efficiency.

[0105] Specifically, if the actual scope insertion time in the scope insertion parameters is less than the preset scope insertion time, the doctor can be prompted that the scope insertion time is too short, allowing the doctor to re-insert the scope for observation or re-examine the abnormal area according to the prompt. If the scope insertion speed in the scope insertion parameters is greater than the preset scope insertion speed, it indicates that the scope insertion speed is too fast, which may result in missed examinations or damage to the ear. The doctor can then be prompted to reduce the scope insertion speed, thereby protecting the patient and avoiding missed examinations.

[0106] Specifically, for example, if the ear canal cleanliness among the abnormal parameters in the ear is less than the preset cleanliness, the doctor can be prompted that the ear cleanliness is unqualified and the ear environment needs to be cleaned before re-examination, so as to avoid the unclean objects in the ear affecting the examination results.

[0107] Specifically, for example, when determining that there may be a tumor in the ear, the location information of the tumor is determined, and the relative value of the abnormal area and the area of the entrance of the external auditory canal is determined. By comparing the relative value with the preset value, the doctor can be prompted according to the size of the abnormal area. For example, the doctor can be prompted to re-check, and the doctor can be assisted in informing the patient to take action. The location of the abnormal area and the abnormal image data can also be informed to the doctor at the same time, thereby improving the efficiency of the doctor's verification of the abnormal area.

[0108] An embodiment of the present application provides a monitoring method for otoscopy, which identifies various structures in the ear and records the parameters of each structure as well as the time and speed. Specifically, when the external auditory canal, light cone and / or malleus are identified in sequence, the first moment and the area of the external auditory canal entrance, the second moment and the effective area in the ear are recorded respectively. At the same time, different types of segmentation models are used to segment the abnormal area in the otoscopy image, and the third moment when the abnormal area appears, the area of the abnormal area and the abnormal image data are determined. The mirror advancement parameters can be determined based on the first moment, the second moment and the mirror advancement speed. The abnormal parameters in the ear can be determined based on the first moment, the third moment, the mirror advancement speed, the area of the external auditory canal entrance, the area of the abnormal area and the effective area in the ear. Prompts can be given based on the abnormal image data, the mirror advancement parameters and the abnormal parameters in the ear, thereby realizing monitoring and prompting of the otoscopy process and avoiding the problem of missed detection.
