What's the difference between otological and otology?
Otological
Definition:
(a.) Of or pertaining tootology.
Example Sentences:
(1) It is felt that otologic surgery should be done before the pinna reconstruction as it is very important to try and introduce sound into these children at an early age.
(2) Noise exposure and demographic data applicable to the United States, and procedures for predicting noise-induced permanent threshold shift (NIPTS) and nosocusis, were used to account for some 8.7 dB of the 13.4 dB average difference between the hearing levels at high frequencies for otologically and noise screened versus unscreened male ears; (this average difference is for the average of the hearing levels at 3000, 4000, and 6000 Hz, average for the 10th, 50th, and 90th percentiles, and ages 20-65 years).
(3) Prior to iontophoresis a complete audiologic, neuro-otologic and x-ray examination of the temporal bones was performed.
(4) Questionnaires assessing symptoms, disability and handicap, predisposition to anxiety, and current anxiety and depression were completed by 127 people attending neuro-otology clinics with a major complaint of vertigo or dysequilibrium.
(5) We used light microscopy to study 87 human temporal bones (from 47 cases) with no known otological disorders, and found that certain cases had sclerotic changes around the endolymphatic duct and sac.
(6) Exclusion criteria included history of chronic otitis media, recent antibiotic therapy, immunosuppressive illnesses, or prior otologic surgery.
(7) Otologic symptoms were infrequent, occurring only with temporal bone involvement.
(8) The results of 40 audiograms from otologically normal long-term underground train drivers were compared with the predicted values published by the National Physical Laboratory tables (Robinson and Shipton, 1977).
(9) The usefulness of labetalol, a new combined alpha and beta adrenoceptor antagonist as a hypotensive agent in otological operations was studied in 18 otherwise healthy patients.
(10) The compensatory process of vestibular neuronitis in 7 patients was followed up and evaluated using the Combined Galvanic Test (CGT) and other neuro-otological data.
(11) Autologous fibrin tissue adhesive is currently the most promising adhesive for otologic use with respect to strength and biocompatibility without the risk of transmissable disease that is of concern with the commercially prepared fibrin adhesive.
(12) We reviewed clinical findings in 740 patients over age 65 who consulted the Otological Medical Group, Inc., during a one-year period for dizziness.
(13) One hundred twenty-nine skull base operations were performed in 126 patients at the Otology Group, Nashville, Tenn., from January 1970 through May 1987.
(14) The Ménière's triad appeared in these patients six months to twenty nine years after the initial otologic or systemic lesion.
(15) The average respondent performed 4.6 fistula explorations among 197 otologic surgeries (some of these were myringotomies) per year.
(16) Otologic surgeons consider the action of sound pressure on the cochlear windows to be of major importance in certain cases of middle-ear pathology, yet previously published network models of mammalian middle ears do not include such a mechanism.
(17) The electrical recordings from the auditory nerve can, in combination with standard audiological, otological and neurological examinations, present a more accurate picture of the patient's condition.
(18) The head shaking test (HST) is an important test in neuro-otological diagnosis.
(19) We may conclude from our results that MR does not create any otological risks for patients with these prostheses in that none of them were dislocated during exposure.
(20) Further research is required to determine the efficacy of otologic homograft sterilization techniques against HIV and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease.
