A tone audiometer is an electroacoustic instrument used by clinicians to assess a patient's hearing sensitivity. By generating specific tones at varying frequencies and intensities, the device helps determine the softest sounds a person can detect, which are then mapped onto an audiogram.
These devices may be operated manually or via computer software to record patient responses during testing. Some configurations include specialized components like bone vibrators to evaluate inner-ear function directly.
