| 释义 | audiology (once / 288276 pages) n Audiology is the science, study, treatment, or measurement of hearing and hearing loss. Doctors who specialize in audiology are called audiologists. An audiology clinic or department offers various kinds of testing to determine whether a person can hear normally, and if not, which frequencies of the person's hearing have been affected. Balance disorders and tinnitus — a persistent ringing in the ears — also fall under the expertise of audiology practitioners. If you needed a hearing aid, you might go to an audiology clinic. Audiology combines audio-, or "sound," from the Latin root audire, "hear," and -ology, "branch of knowledge."
