This invention provides a method for obtaining ear drum standard image and the design of related otoscope and software, which includes the following steps: First, moving an otoscope with a circle sight to a target position in ear canal, and capturing an ear drum image; Then, choosing an ear drum region from the ear drum image, and calculating an area overlapping between the circle sight and the ear drum region. If the area does not satisfy a standard value, moving the otoscope to another target position, and repeating above steps; otherwise, choosing the ear drum image to be an ear drum standard image.

The invention provides a system and a method for an otitis media database constructing. The steps of method comprise: First, receiving a plurality of tympanic membrane images, wherein the tympanic membrane images are ear infection in different types. Second, choosing one of the tympanic membrane images, then classifying into a plurality of anatomic regions based on a plurality of tissue types. Coding each of anatomic regions with a numerical number to describe its morbid condition, and obtaining an eigenvalue through collecting the numerical number of each anatomic region. Furthermore, repeatedly choosing other one of tympanic membrane images until each tympanic membrane image obtaining the eigenvalue. And obtaining a matrix through collecting the eigenvalue of each tympanic membrane image, then generating an otitis media database.
