A new study conducted by researchers at the University of Montreal explores the accuracy of the Mimi Hearing Test (MHT) mobile application in detecting air conduction thresholds and screening for moderate hearing loss. The study involved 75 adults with varying degrees of hearing loss who underwent both conventional in-booth audiograms and mobile-based screening with MHT.
