耳科学的发展与展望

耳科学在人类与耳部疾病的斗争中兴起了１９世纪，在本世纪随科学技术的发展而获得迅速发展，特别是抗菌素和手术显微镜的出现，使耳显同外科技术不断提高，不仅能彻底地祛除耳部感染，而且可以有效地提高听力，耳科学家在聋病的治疗过程中，已能够有效地治疗传导性耳聋，但仍面临着治疗神经性耳聋的挑战，在现代科学技术革命的推动下，随着分析子生物学，细胞生物学等新技术的发展，在２１世纪，人类必定能够彻底治疗聋病。

The Dawn of Otology and Modern Otology

Otologic science has been emergence as a specialty in nineteenth century.It has made great progresses with the development of science and technology in twentieth century.Especially,otologic microsurgery has been developed with the emergency of antibiotics and microscope.Not only the infection of ear can be cured,the hearing level can also be enhanced.In the course of deafness treatment,the otologists already can cure conductive hearing loss.However,the otologists must confront to challenge of sensorineural deafness.Take advantage of modern science and technology,otologists will cure all type of deafness with the development of molecular biology,cytology and the other technology in twenty first century.
