Abstract
We successfully acquired a comprehensive three-dimensional imaging of swine Eustachian tubes using a catheter-based OCT. The OCT images clearly identified the structure and tissue components of the Eustachian tube, which was confirmed by the corresponding histological images. In addition, after the balloon dilation of the Eustachian tube, the OCT images clearly visualized the expanded luminal area of the Eustachian tube, quantitatively. The catheter-based OCT is expected to be applicable to the diagnosis and research of Eustachian tube disorder by providing real-time assessment.
