One application for diagnostic otoacoustic emissions is in the use of ototoxicity monitoring. Ototoxic agents include antibiotics (particularly aminoglycosides), loop diuretics such as furosemide, ch…
While humanitarian trips are often taken by audiologists for the purposes of addressing hearing concerns, taking earmold impressions, and fitting hearing aids, less often are humanitarian efforts foc…
What is Bayesian weighting? Bayesian weighting is a tool designed to assist the clinician when testing in less than optimal conditions. While giving sweeps with less noise a higher “score”, sweeps wi…
An important consideration when it comes to performing aided cortical testing is around the stimuli used for the test. Limitations of previous aided cortical stimuli There were concerns regarding som…
What is the mismatch negativity (MMN) response? The mismatch negativity (MMN) response is a negative wave elicited in an ‘oddball’ paradigm where by a deviant stimuli is presented amongst a stream of…
It is relatively simple to track horizontal and vertical eye movements using videonystagmography (VNG) because they can be directly deduced from the position of the pupil. However, torsional movement…
