MODEL RELEASED. Tympanometry test. Audiometrist testing a patient's ear drum in a test known as tympanometry. A probe is inserted into the patient's ear and a tone generated to vary the pressure inside the ear. The condition of the ear drum and the bones and structures of the inner ear can be assessed by the amount of sound reflected back to the probe. The result will be a tympanogram,which can be used with an audiogram to assess the state of the patient's hearing.
