SCOPING AND TREATMENT

A fiber optic scope attached to a small video camera can be passed deep into the ear canal. Images can be displayed on a video monitor, captured to the computer and sent to a printer.

Small instruments can be passed through a working channel in the scope to clean and treat a diseased ear.

This device is attached to a small catheter which is passed through the scope into the ear canal or middle ear. This permits irrigation, suction and delivery of medications.
