Combined analysis of finite element model and audiometry provides insights into the pathogenesis of conductive hearing loss

The middle ear transmits sound to the inner ear via vibrations in the eardrum and ossicles, and damage to the middle ear results in conductive hearing loss. Although conductive hearing loss can be corrected by surgery, the currently available clinical investigations cannot always diagnose the ossicu...
