Abstract

We have demonstrated that the cancellation method can be used for calibrating the bone‐conduction vibrator in relation to the headphone of the audiometer and for an accurate measurement of a maximum bilateral conductive hearing loss. It is discussed how the correctness of the adjustment for the cancellation can be verified by recording brainstem auditory evoked potentials.
