    The middle ear includes the tympanic membrane and ossicle chain, crucial for sound transmission from air to the inner ear.

    Middle ear disorders can lead to conductive hearing loss and are often caused by infections or trauma.

  • 3

    Current diagnostic methods for middle ear conditions are limited and do not effectively identify the source of transmission loss.

  • 4

    Endoscopic optical coherence tomography (OCT) provides high-resolution images of the middle ear but suffers from noise and interpretation challenges.

    The study introduces C2P-Net, a non-rigid registration pipeline that improves the alignment of OCT data with ex vivo middle ear models.
