内容説明・目次
内容説明
This new book represents a thorough update of Hearing Assessment, Second Edition, while retaining the informative and important basic chapters dealing with fundamental concepts of clinical audiology. It also provides new data on the more complex and sometimes controversial assessment procedures critical to the practice of contemporary audiology. Comprehensive explanations of various aspects of diagnostics are brought to the reader by authorities in their areas of specialization.
While the clinical procedures of some topics (e.g. pure tone audiometry, clinical masking, etc.) have changed little in the past decade, other topics (evoked potentials, otoacoustic emissions, etc.) have continued to evolve and expand largely due to the scientific emphasis placed on these topics. As a consequence, the scope and magnitude of some chapters are proportionately greater than others. This book maintains a clear focus on auditory assessment throughout topics.
