A system for evaluating auditory function from 8000--20 000 Hz.
A system for the measurement of auditory function from 8000--20 000 Hz is described. This system introduces advances in: (a) maximum power output, (b) signal fidelity, and (c) transducer characteristics. Two case studies are presented to illustrate the clinical information gained from the measurement of high-frequency auditory sensitivity, which is not readily apparent in conventional threshold assessment.
