English: A diagram of the anatomy of the human ear. Green is outer ear. Red is middle ear. ... external auditory canal ≅ external ear canal (Q258328)
Bigger (proportional real size) and full redraw (more realistic) of the auricle. Ossicles in white colour. Eardrum with contour. Added 3 labels. Add fundus to the bone and subcutaneous tissues, add superior auricular muscle, add transparency to middle ear, add separation between middle and inner ear, add division to internal auditory canal.
The outer ear is the external portion of the ear and includes the fleshy visible auricle, the ear canal, and the outer layer of the eardrum (also called the tympanic membrane). [2] [3] The auricle consists of the curving outer rim called the helix, the inner curved rim called the antihelix, and opens into the ear canal.
The outer ear, external ear, or auris externa is the external part of the ear, which consists of the auricle (also pinna) and the ear canal. [1] It gathers sound energy and focuses it on the eardrum ( tympanic membrane ).

Once the piece rests in the ear with an air-tight seal, the machine will change the pressure to find the degree of pressure that matches your middle ear space. As the probe changes the pressure ...
The middle ear is the portion of the ear medial to the eardrum, and distal to the oval window of the cochlea (of the inner ear). The mammalian middle ear contains three ossicles (malleus, incus, and stapes), which transfer the vibrations of the eardrum into waves in the fluid and membranes of the inner ear .
In the anatomy of humans and various other tetrapods, the eardrum, also called the tympanic membrane or myringa, is a thin, cone-shaped membrane that separates the external ear from the middle ear. Its function is to transmit changes in pressure of sound from the air to the ossicles inside the middle ear, and thence to the oval window in the ...
