The Otoacoustic Emission (OAE) test measures sounds produced by the inner ear in response to external stimuli. These emissions, generated by the cochlea, are assessed through a tiny microphone placed in the ear canal. OAE testing helps evaluate cochlear function and detect hearing loss, especially in newborns and young children. It is a quick, non-invasive procedure that provides valuable information about the health of the inner ear, aiding in accurate diagnosis and effective management of hearing conditions..
