Weber Test
Hearing is tested with a 256-cycles-per-second (cps) or a 512-cps tuning fork. A 128-cps tuning fork measures vibration; it does not test hearing as well. The Weber test places the tuning fork in the center of the forehead and the physician asks the patient where he or she hears it (Fig. 1.1). Is it louder on one side than on the other or is it loudest in the center? With a normal Weber test, the sound is heard loudest in the center or it is heard equally in both ears.
