Overview
Other mastoiditis imaging findings include otoscopic images of the tympanic membrane displaying middle ear effusion and infection. Also tympanogramsmay be used for measuring pressure from fluid buildup in the middle ear.
Key Findings in Otoscopy in Otitis Media
- Otoscopic examination of the ears may reveal the following signs indicative of mastoiditis in conjunction with otitis media::[1]
- Erythema of the middle ear.
- Presence of effusion.[2]
- Bulging of the tympanic membrane in otitis media with effusion.
- Cloudy appearance of the tympanic membrane.
- Immobility of the tympanic membrane.
- Tympanic membrane perforation.
Key Findings in Tympanometry in Otitis Media
- Tympanometry may reveal hearing loss due to effusion, as measured by abnormally large reflection of sound due to elevated pressure from fluid buildup.[2]
