system. The open circles show the audiometric (absolute)
thresholds. The “TEN” symbols show masked thresholds measured for TEN with a level of 80 dB HL. The
TEN(HL)-test criteria for a dead region are met at 1.5, 3, and 4 kHz. The result at 2 kHz is inconclusive, as
the masked threshold is not 10 dB or more above the audiometric threshold. In such a case, the result at 2
kHz could be checked using a TEN level of 90 dB HL. Overall, the results suggest that this patient has a
dead region extending from 1.5 kHz upwards.
