On completion of the tympanometry test sequence, the relative screen will
display the tympanogram obtained and the relative numerical results.

Information
Tympanometry.
measurement of the vertical axis
(acoustic admittance) is expressed in:
-
ml (equivalent volume of air),
with 226 Hz probe tone
-
mmho, with 1 kHz probe tone
The horizontal axis indicates meatus
pressure in relation to ambient pressure,
expressed in daPa.
Pressure at the tympanogram peak.
Ear Canal Volume: compliance in ml
measured at the maximum value of the
pressure range selected for the scan.
This value is also called the "equivalent
volume".
