Performing good quality visual reinforcement audiometry (VRA) can be a complex task and it is important to be aware of possible pitfalls and sources of error. The British Society of Audiology's recom…
In September, we were happy to announce the Aided Cortical module for the Interacoustics Eclipse, which helps you validate the benefit of a hearing device in infants, children, adults and other patie…
Interacoustics is excited to launch the Aided Cortical module for their Eclipse evoked potential system. The Eclipse Aided Cortical module offers an objective method to validate the benefit of hearin…
Picture this – unfortunately – real-life scenario: You’re using carbon paper or pre-printed templates to transfer a hand-written audiogram to paper. You then hand this off to the patient to bring wit…
What is the masking level difference (MLD)? The masking level difference (MLD) is the improvement in detecting a tone or speech in noise when the phase of the tone or the noise is reversed by 180 deg…
