How can I create an audiogram?
To create an audiogram, you need to visit an audiologist who will conduct a hearing test. During the test, you will listen to different tones and indicate when you hear them. The audiologist will then plot your hearing thresholds on a graph, resulting in an audiogram that shows your hearing levels across different frequencies.

Does not wearing a hearing aid accelerate an already known hearing loss?
Hearing aid use will not accelerate or decelerate your hearing loss, but wearing a hearing aid may keep your brain's speech interpretation ability sharp. The prescription you have for your hearing (called an audiogram) is a representation of how well your ear picks up the sounds around you so that they can be sent to the brain. If you have a hearing loss, it will be represented in the audiogram. If you have a hearing loss but do not wear hearing aids for it, the brain will not get all of the sounds that are necessary to interpret speech. The longer you go without hearing these sounds, the more synapses in the brain will weaken and die from disuse. It's the ear's version of the "use it or loose it" effect. The longer you wait to get a hearing aid, the more difficult it will be for your brain to adjust to one. Even though your audiogram may or may not change over time, without a hearing aid, your understanding ability may well worsen. Additionally, many studies have shown that even a mild untreated hearing loss contributes to dementia. If you need hearing aids, they will help more than your day to day hearing - they will prevent your brain from weakening as well.
How can I make an audiogram for my podcast episode?
To create an audiogram for your podcast episode, you can use online tools like Headliner or Audiogram.

What evaluation is the measurement of the ability to hear and understand speech sounds based on their pitch and loudness?
The evaluation you're referring to is called an audiogram. It is a graph showing the results of a hearing test that measures a person's ability to hear different pitches and loudness levels. This diagnostic tool helps determine the extent of a person's hearing loss and guides appropriate treatment.

Why would a doctor order mri for hearing loss?
MRI will show nerves tissue wonderfully. While hearing test can detect nerve damage accurately, MRI will help shed some light over further management and intervention for the problem Sometimes a the pattern of the audiogram (part of a hearing test) and the variations between your air condution thresholds and your speech proccessing give indications of what is called a central processing problem. All that means is that your hearing and speech processing scores indicate a possibility of problems in the brain. The two major possibilities that the Dr wants to rule out are a brain tumor or a mini stroke which may have affected your hearing processing centers. These problems are easily ruled out with an MRI.
