(CN VII). The external auditory meatus, the canal that runs inwards to the tympanic membrane or ear drum, is lined by skin and supported in its outer part by cartilage. The inner part of the meatus is 1–2mm in length, and has a bony wall provided by the ectotympanic bone, which ...

The tympanic membrane or ear-drum is an oval, semi-transparent, pearly grey trilaminar membrane and separates the tympanic cavity from the external acoustic meatus. Its maximum diameter measures about 9-10 mm, and minimum 8-9 mm (Fig. 14.5). Position: The membrane is placed obliquely making...
Ear DrumGathering vibrational data from the human middle ear is quite difficult. To this date the well-known acoustic probe is used to estimate audiometric parameters, e.g. otoacoustic emissions, wideband reflectance and the measurement of the stapedius reflex. An acoustic probe contains at least ...
The BRX was certainly up to the task of replicating the expert stick-work of drummer Stewart Copeland during The Police’s “Tea in the Sahara”; his lightning fast, crisply articulate percussion was awash with the electricity of high-pitch cymbals and expressive drum-skin snap, slap, and ...
