Hearing/Balance Testing

Diagnostic Audiology

Hearing Evaluation

Audiometric testing (hearing testing) determines the type and degree of hearing loss. The test includes pure tone air and bone conduction thresholds, speech recognition and immitance testing.

Auditory Brainstem Response (ABR) is a useful screening test to evaluate the auditory nerve and brainstem. It is frequently ordered for asymmetric hearing loss, tinnitus in one ear, or to objectively determine threshold of hearing in very young children and some adults.

Electrocochleography (EcoG) measures inner ear function to assist with the diagnosis of Meniere's disease (excess fluid in the inner ear) or perilymphatic fistula (leakage of inner fluid to the middle ear).
Vestibular Evaluation

Vestibular Evaluation

Electronystagmography (ENG or VNG) is helpful to rule out or confirm a disorder of the vestibular system.
