[0002] The Eustachian tube (ET) is a dynamic structure that is traditionally classified as part of the auditory system. The ET is a narrow epithelial-lined tube that extends from the middle ear to the nasopharynx, connecting the middle ear and the nasopharynx, and is important for the health of the middle ear and the hearing function of the human ear. Due to the small space of the Eustachian tube itself and the many symptoms of the disease, traditional medical methods are difficult to effectively detect and treat Eustachian tube-related diseases.
