With the optimization of deep learning algorithms and the accumulation of medical big data, deep learning technology has been widely applied in research in various fields of otology in recent years. At present, research on deep learning in otology is combined with a variety of data such as endoscopy, temporal bone images, audiograms, and intraoperative images, which involves diagnosis of otologic diseases (including auricular malformations, external auditory canal diseases, middle ear diseases, and inner ear diseases), treatment (guiding medication and surgical planning), and prognosis prediction (involving hearing regression and speech learning). According to the type of data and the purpose of the study (disease diagnosis, treatment and prognosis), the different neural network models can be used to take advantage of their algorithms, and the deep learning can be a good aid in treating otologic diseases. The deep learning has a good applicable prospect in the clinical diagnosis and treatment of otologic diseases, which can play a certain role in promoting the development of deep learning combined with intelligent medicine.
