  • Title: [Personal experience with the difference limen in interrupted tones in differentiating between sensorineural and supracochlear hearing disorders].
    Author: Koval J, Pichanic M, Molcan M.
    Journal: Cesk Otolaryngol; 1989 May; 38(3):154-7. PubMed ID: 2758473.
    Abstract:
    The authors assessed the differences of the limen of interrupted sounds (sounds which last 500 ms, between which there are intervals of 200 ms) in healthy subjects and in patients with sensory neural and supracochlear hearing disorders. Essentially the results are consistent with those of Schorn and Fastl (2) and they suggest that patients with supracochlear hearing disorders are able to differentiate only much greater differences in intensity (more than 4 dB) between sounds, as compared with patients with sensory neural hearing disorders.
