A system for evaluating auditory function from 8000–20 000 Hz

Abstract

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.
