#audiometry

• Audiogram — A graphic representation of an individual's hearing capacity, obtained through an audiometric test, which indicates the minimum threshold of sound perception across various frequencies for each ear. The chart correlates sound intensity in decibels with wave frequency in Hertz, serving as the core clinical tool to diagnose hearing loss.
• Audiometric — Belonging to audiometry, relating to audiometry, or to the acoustic measurement of hearing sensitivity and acuity; performed using an audiometer. The term describes tests, equipment, laboratories, or soundproof booths specially designed to evaluate the minimum threshold of sound perception across various frequencies.
• Audiometry — A clinical method of measuring hearing acuity and sensitivity using a device called an audiometer, by determining the perception threshold of sounds at various frequencies and intensities. The procedure enables professionals to diagnose the type, degree, and anatomical location of hearing loss.
• Audiometer — An electroacoustic high-precision device used in medicine and audiology to measure hearing acuity and determine the threshold of sound perception. The apparatus generates reference sound signals with strictly controlled frequencies and intensities transmitted via specialized headphones, allowing the practitioner to map out hearing loss.
