Otolaryngology is the study of ear, nose, and throat conditions or ENT. It is also referred to as Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery or Otorhinolaryngology, since otolaryngologists are qualified to perform surgeries on the delicate and complex tissues of the head and neck. A practitioner of otolaryngology may also be called an ear, nose, and throat doctor, or an ENT for short. Journal of Otology & Rhinology is a peer reviewed journal which maintains high standards of all the published articles covering the fields of Otology, Rhinology, Otolaryngology, Audiology and Head and Neck Surgery. The journal aims to be the standard-bearer in otolaryngology research and surgery.
