| |
| 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]].

| [[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.
