The purpose of this study is to evaluate how virtual computed tomography (CT) endoscopy may help in assessing ossicles in the middle ear. Our series consisted of 96 ears of 68 consecutive patients with conducting hearing loss. All examinations were performed with a high-resolution spiral CT using axial and direct coronal planes of the temporal bone. Perspective virtual endoscopy was processed using the virtual endoscopic software. Superstructure of the stapes was difficult to evaluate on the virtual endoscopy; however, virtual endoscopy of the middle ear provides further information on the pathological conditions including congenital anomaly, posttraumatic, and inflammatory processes.
