   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hearing_test

   A hearing test provides an evaluation of the sensitivity of a person's sense of hearing and is most often performed by an audiologist using an audiometer. An audiometer is used to determine a person's hearing sensitivity at different frequencies. There are other hearing tests as well, e.g., Weber test and Rinne test.

   Here's how to read an audiogram and a doctor's explanation of the most common results including sloping hearing loss, notched hearing loss, cookie-bite hearing loss and reverse-sloping hearing loss.

4. Audiometry - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audiometry

   A pure tone audiometry hearing test is the gold standard for evaluation of hearing loss or disability. [medical citation needed] Other types of hearing tests also generate graphs or tables of results that may be loosely called 'audiograms', but the term is universally used to refer to the result of a pure tone audiometry hearing test.

5. Pure-tone audiometry - Wikipedia

   This prevents the non-test ear from detecting the test signal presented to the test ear. The threshold of the test ear is measured at the same time as presenting the masking noise to the non-test ear. Thus, thresholds obtained when masking has been applied, provide an accurate representation of the true hearing threshold level of the test ear. [13]

6. Tone decay test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tone_decay_test

   A tone at the frequency of 4000 Hz is presented for 60 seconds at an intensity of 5 decibels above the patient's absolute threshold of hearing. If the patient stops hearing the tone before 60 seconds, the intensity level is increased by another 5 decibels with the procedure repeated until the tone can be heard for the full 60 seconds or until no decibel level can be found where the tone can be ...

7. Diagnosis of hearing loss - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diagnosis_of_hearing_loss

   Other method for quantifying hearing loss is a hearing test using a mobile application or hearing aid application, which includes a hearing test. [1] [2] Hearing diagnosis using mobile application is similar to the audiometry procedure. As a result of hearing test, hearing thresholds at different frequencies are determined.
