ديافراجم - ديافراغم - قرص السماعة - طبلة السماعة


Explanation:
Diaphragm:
Disk which vibrates in response to sound waves (in a stethoscope, telephone, speaker, etc.)

That is my suggestion as I never came up with a standard name. I doubt that you might get an answer if you ask a doctor :)

طرف السماعة الطبية المستدير


Explanation:
Translating as DIAPHRAGM is committing yourself because the most common type of stethoscope comes with a diaphtagm & a cone (Dual-head). Each has its specific uses. Sometimes it is better to be literate.
