Other Diagnostic Tests

Audiometry

• More sensitive detection of hearing loss at specific frequencies
• Better test for speech discrimination (disproportionately affected in retrocochlear disease)
• Most useful for distinguishing cochlear vs. retrocochlear causes of peripheral lesion
• Detects sensorineural hearing loss in almost all cases acoustic neuroma
