== Overview ==
Other mastoiditis imaging findings include [[Otoscopy|otoscopic]] images of the [[tympanic membrane]] displaying middle ear effusion and infection. Also [[Tympanometry|tympanograms]]<nowiki/>may be used for measuring pressure from fluid buildup in the [[middle ear]].
 
== Key Findings in Otoscopy in mastoiditis ==
* [[Otoscopy|Otoscopic]] examination of the ears may reveal the following signs indicative of mastoiditis:<ref name="pmid25213276">{{cite journal |vauthors=Rettig E, Tunkel DE |title=Contemporary concepts in management of acute otitis media in children |journal=Otolaryngol.

==Key Findings in Tympanometry in mastoiditis==
*[[Tympanometry]] may reveal [[hearing loss]] due to effusion, as measured by abnormally large reflection of sound due to elevated pressure from fluid buildup.<ref name="pmid23346249">{{cite journal |vauthors=Parlea E, Georgescu M, Calarasu R |title=Tympanometry as a predictor factor in the evolution of otitis media with effusion |journal=J Med Life |volume=5 |issue=4 |pages=452–4 |year=2012 |pmid=23346249 |pmc=3539835 |doi= |url=}}</ref>
