The article presents a historical overview of different measurement methods of mobility of middle ear structures. It points out a thorough research of transition from mechanical measurement techniques with mathematical approximation to the nanotechnological methods. The main approaches to modern mathematical models of middle ear construction including finite element method have been described in the work.
