Brief summary
The aim of this study is to compare the thickness of the stapes footplate measured with ultra high resolution CT in control patients, otosclerosis patients and chronic otitis media patients.
Detailed description
Stapes footplate thickness will be measured under its anterior crus, its posterior crus and at its midpoint, in both the stapes axial plane and the laletral semi-circular canal planes.
