pure tone audiometry

Single-frequency hearing test

Pure tone audiometry is the standard hearing test where a person listens through headphones and indicates when they hear tones at different pitches and volumes.

The results map onto an audiogram showing hearing thresholds across frequencies.

The doctor ordered pure tone audiometry to determine if the child needed hearing aids.
