299 - OCT Imaging Reveals New Insights into Meniere’s Disease and Other Inner Ear Disorders

For the first time, optical coherence tomography (OCT) is being used to study the human inner ear directly in patients. In this follow-up conversation, Dr. John Oghalai, Professor and Chair of the Caruso Department of Otolaryngology at USC, shares the latest advances in this groundbreaking research.Dr. Oghalai describes how his team has transitioned from animal studies to human imaging, uncovering new insights into conditions such as Meniere’s disease and vestibular schwannoma. By visualizing endolymphatic hydrops in real patients, this work moves closer to a future where handheld OCT devices could help audiologists and clinicians diagnose and monitor inner ear disorders in everyday practice.The discussion explores both the promise and current challenges of developing practical, non-invasive imaging tools—technology that may one day transform care for hearing loss, tinnitus, and balance disorders.Be sure to subscribe to our channel for the latest episodes each week and follow This Week in Hearing on LinkedIn, Instagram and X.
