Abstract

The resolution of data given by traditional fixed-frequency tone audiometry is limited to the number of frequencies tested. Numerical electronics now allow us to bypass the difficulties of controlled-level frequency sweeping. The Audioscan method gives a detailed audiometric curve and is designed to detect even the narrowest notches. The Audioscan method includes the possibility of defining hearing loss indicators containing more information and of increasing the diagnostic power of the audiometry. The applications both in the clinic and in screening are highly promising.
