At Prescott Hearing Center, we are committed to providing our patients with the highest level of care using the latest technology. One of the innovative tools we use is video otoscopy, which might sound like a complex medical term, but it essentially means taking a closer look inside your ears with a camera. This advanced technique transforms the way we diagnose and treat ear-related issues, and here’s how it can benefit you.
What is Video Otoscopy?
Video otoscopy is a procedure that uses a specialized camera to examine the outer ear canal and eardrum. Unlike traditional methods that rely on simple light and magnification, video otoscopy provides a live video feed of the inside of your ear. This allows both the hearing care professional and the patient to see a clear, detailed image of the ear canal and eardrum on a monitor.
