Inspection of the upper airwaves is performed using a small flexible probe starting from the entrance into the nasal space, epipharynx /pharyngal arch/, presentation of the third tonsil, down to the vocal cords and larynx, as well as the beginning of the trachea.

Most common conditions that can be accurately diagnosed using this method

• Changes of the nasal space – hypertrophic changes, changes due to allergy, presence of secretion, deviation of the nasal septum, tumors
• Changes in the epipharynx – assessment of third tonsil in children, hypertrophy of lymphatic tissue, tumor changes
• Changes in the root of the tongue, lower floor of the pharynx and throat – benign and malignant changes, polyps of vocal cords

The procedure is painless and lasts for a few minutes.

The extremely small diameter of the probe makes the examination much simpler and easier for the patient compared to the other nasopharyngolaryngoscopies.

Enables precise evaluation of the structures with HD video image and possibility for video recording.

• The procedure is painless, lasts for a few minutes
• Provides fast, simple and precise diagnostics
• The sophisticated, modern device for fibernasopharingolaryngoscopy enables precise evaluation of the upper airways structures with HD video image and possibility for video recording

• It is a superior method compared to the classical otoscopy, especially in children due to the anatomical limitations regarding the size of the external auditory canal and eardrum.
• Smaller outpatient intervention can be performed using otomicroscopy: aspiration of secretion or cerumen from the external auditory canal, taking ear swab, removal of polyps or biopsy, postoperative dressing.
• The videomicroscopy enables additional video image of the otomicroscopic procedure.

Air and bone conductivity or the sound waves is examined using two pairs of headphones. A graphic image of the hearing condition – audiogram is received by applying tones with various intensity.

There are two types of hearing damage – conductive and sensorineural as well as combination of the both.

The received audiometric findings can direct us to the possible etiology for hearing loss. The comparative analysis of the three most important diagnostic methods: otomicroscopy, audiometry and tympanometry is especially important for the ear diseases.

• Graphic image – tympanogram is made by applying variable pressure in the external auditory canal.
• Different tympanometric finding are consistent with certain pathological conditions of the middle ear.
• Tympanometry can be complemented with examination of the stapedial reflex/contraction of m. stapedius in presence of stronger signal.
• It is an important diagnostic method in the monitoring of the middle ear finding in inflammatory processes.
• It is especially important for younger children since enables detection of conditions which may cause hearing loss.
