At Lowcountry Hearing Healthcare in Charleston, SC, we are committed to delivering comprehensive diagnostics services to ensure optimal hearing health for all our patients. With our cutting-edge facilities and dedicated team of professionals, we offer a wide array of diagnostic tests and procedures aimed at accurate assessments and effective treatment plans.

Our Diagnostics Services Include

Hearing Evaluations

Our clinic provides thorough hearing evaluations, including pure-tone audiometry, speech audiometry, and tympanometry testing. These assessments help in identifying hearing loss, determining its type and severity, and guiding appropriate interventions.

Tympanometry Testing

Tympanometry is a crucial diagnostic test used to assess the function of the middle ear and the mobility of the eardrum (tympanic membrane). By measuring changes in air pressure within the ear canal, this test aids in detecting conditions such as fluid accumulation, eardrum perforations, and Eustachian tube dysfunction.

Otoacoustic Emissions (OAEs) Testing

We offer OAE testing to evaluate the function of the inner ear (cochlea) by measuring the response of hair cells to sound stimuli. This test is particularly useful in screening for hearing loss in newborns, children, and individuals who may have difficulty with traditional audiometric assessments.

Speech-in-Noise Testing

Our clinic conducts speech-in-noise testing to assess an individual's ability to understand speech in challenging listening environments. This test helps in evaluating auditory processing abilities and guiding appropriate interventions for improved communication in noisy settings.

Comprehensive Audiological Assessments

In addition to basic hearing evaluations, we offer comprehensive audiologic assessments tailored to each patient's needs. These assessments may include specialized tests such as auditory brainstem response (ABR), auditory processing disorder (APD) evaluations, and balance assessments.
