Description
1.5.1 General
1.5.2 Air Conduction Testing
Hearing threshold levels can be determined by presenting test signals to the test subject
with the included headphones (Air Conduction
– AC). The purpose of AC audiometry is
to establish the hearing sensitivity at various frequencies. The test can specify the AC
loss but cannot distinguish between a conductive versus a sensorineural abnormality.
