It is suggested that high-frequency probe tones were able to increase test sensitivity to the mechanics of the middle ear when it was mass-dominated, as in this infant.
A pilot investigation of high-frequency audiometry in obscure auditory dysfunction (OAD) patients.

It is proposed that OAD in fact, is the product of an ultra-high-frequency hearing impairment and its psychoacoustic sequelae and the degree to which it can be used may be limited due to the large intersubject variability in HFA thresholds in the normal population.
