Type of article: Article

Summary

THE NEW METHOD OF MEASUREMENT IS BASED ON A TRANSFORMATION OF MECHANICAL VIBRATIONS INTO MAGNETIC FLUX VARIATIONS. THIS IS PERFORMED BY ATTACHING A SMALL PIECE OF PERMANENT MAGNETIC MATERIAL TO THE EARDRUM OR MIDDLE EAR OSSICLES. THE MAGNETIC FLUX VARIATIONS CAUSED BY VIBRATIONS OF THE EARDRUM OR OSSICLES DURING APPLICATION OF SOUND CAN BE MEASURED BY MEANS OF A SQUID MAGNETOMETER.
