Vocal and Tonal Audiometry
Vocal and Tonal Audiometry
Vocal and tonal audiometry are essential hearing tests that assess your ability to detect and understand sounds and speech.
- Tonal Audiometry evaluates your hearing sensitivity across a range of frequencies to detect hearing loss.
- Vocal Audiometry tests your ability to understand spoken words, helping assess speech clarity and comprehension.
- Together, these tests form the foundation for identifying the type and severity of hearing loss.
Tympanometry
Tympanometry
Tympanometry is a quick, non-invasive test that assesses the movement and function of the eardrum and middle ear. It is especially useful in detecting:
- Fluid in the middle ear.
- Eustachian tube dysfunction.
- Ear infections or perforated eardrums.
- Stiffness or pressure imbalances affecting hearing.
This test provides valuable insights for diagnosing both temporary and chronic middle ear conditions.
Accoustic Reflex Testing
Accoustic Reflex Testing
Accoustic reflex testing measures the involuntary muscle contractions in the middle ear in response to loud sounds. It helps evaluate the integrity of the auditory pathway from the ear to the brainstem.
- Useful for identifying nerve-related hearing loss.
- Helps confirm the presence and location of auditory system abnormalities.
- Often used alongside other audiometry tests for a complete hearing profile.
At St. Marc, our audiometry services are conducted with precision, care, and respect for each patient’s comfort. Whether for routine screening or complex diagnosis, we are committed to helping you hear better and live better.
