A Method for Noninvasive Diagnostic Examination of the Tympanic Membrane Using Probing Polyharmonic Sound Signals

  • Published:
Biomedical Engineering Aims and scope

A new method for noninvasive examination of the tympanic membrane based on the detection and processing of reflected polyharmonic sound signals is suggested together with a hardware system for its implementation in otolaryngological practice.
