Otoacoustic emissions
Low-level sound emitted by the cochlea, either spontaneously or as an echo or other sound evoked by and auditory stimulus, related to the function of the outer hair cells of the cochlea.
Otoacoustic Emissions (OAEs) are sounds measured in the external ear canal that reflect active processes in the cochlea. OAEs are used to help determine cochlear function, specifically outer hair cell function. When outer hair cells are structurally damaged or nonfunctional, OAEs typically cannot be measured. In addition, if middle ear pathology is present, OAEs may not be present, which may suggest some degree of dysfunction in the middle and/or inner ear.
Test measuring OAEs is another option that is used for our battery of diagnostics at Professional Audiology Clinic when appropriate.
