**_Otorhinolaryng_** (OLK) is a branch of medicine that deals with the study and treatment of diseases of the ear, nose and throat, as well as the upper respiratory tract. ENT doctors also treat diseases such as tonsillitis, pharyngitis, sinusitis, rhinitis, sinusitis, otitis media, atresia and much more. However, OLC is also a field of medicine in which other sciences, such as otoneurology (ON), intersect.
**_Otoneuro_** _**logy**_ is a scientific discipline that studies the relationship between the nerves responsible for hearing and the brain. Such research may help to understand how the human hearing system works and may also help explain some hearing impairments caused by diseases of the central nervous system or other conditions. To diagnose otoneurological diseases, special tests are used that measure the conduction of impulses along the auditory nerve.
OLC and otoneurology are two important fields of medicine that work closely together. An OLC helps determine the cause of the hearing loss and create a treatment plan, while an otoneurologist can help determine which part of the hearing system is damaged and what procedures are needed to repair it. The interaction between otoneurology and OLC is especially important for doctors of various specialties, since many diseases associated with the ears, nose and throat can also affect the functioning of the nervous system and vice versa.
