Impedance Audiometry
Impedance Audiometry is a valuable diagnostic test used to evaluate the health of the middle ear and assess conditions that may cause hearing loss. At Mythri Speech & Hearing Center, we offer comprehensive Impedance Audiometry services performed by our experienced audiologists. Using advanced equipment, we can accurately measure the middle ear's response to sound and provide valuable insights into your hearing health.
What is Impedance Audiometry?
Impedance Audiometry, also known as Tympanometry, measures the impedance or resistance to sound transmission in the middle ear.
About Impedance Audiometry
The test assesses the function of the eardrum (tympanic membrane), middle ear bones (ossicles), and the Eustachian tube. It is particularly useful in identifying conditions such as fluid in the middle ear, ear infections, perforated eardrum, and disorders affecting the mobility of the middle ear.
Impedance Audiometry is a quick, painless, and non-invasive procedure that provides valuable information about the middle ear system and its function in the hearing process.
Key Benefits:
- Non-invasive diagnostic procedure
- Quick and painless assessment
- Identifies middle ear abnormalities
- Helps in planning effective treatment
- Essential for comprehensive hearing evaluation
Understanding Middle Ear Function
The middle ear plays a crucial role in transmitting sound vibrations from the outer ear to the inner ear. Impedance Audiometry helps us understand how well this system is working.
When sound reaches the eardrum, it causes it to vibrate. These vibrations are then transmitted through the three small bones (ossicles) in the middle ear to the inner ear. Any disruption in this process can result in hearing difficulties.
