誘発耳音響放射による他覚的内耳機能評価

抄録

The tone-burst and click evoked otoacoustic emissions (e-OAEs) were investigated in normalhearing ears and the ears with sensorineural hearing loss due to various causes. The resultsobtained in persons with bilateral normal hearing and unilateral cochlear deafness indicated that theinteraural difference of various e-OAE parameters could be the most useful objective parameter toinvestigate the cochlear function quantitatively. The current clinical status of e-OAE as the objectiveindicator of cochlear function was discussed.
