An audiogram is a graphic representation of an audiometric result. Its format is determined by the ISO 8253 standard. However, you may want to add your own overlays, such as a speech banana or a zone indicating when BAHA or CI is indicated.
Audiqueen can now add such overlays. Administrator rights are required to create overlays. An overlay can be either a figure or a zone created by X-Y coordinates.
To create an overlay, go to Audiometry (1), click on Format (2), and then on Manage Overlays (3).
Click on Add to create a new overlay.
Picture
Now give a name (1), select Picture (2), and decide whether you want Audiqueen to fit this plot on a regular audiogram (125-8000 Hz) or an audiogram with high frequencies (125-20.000 Hz) (3).
Now you can upload the picture (arrow). Make sure the picture width and height are between 500 and 3000 pixels!
XY-Plot
If you prefer to draw your own zone on the audiogram, proceed as before, but select XY-plot and enter the coördinates of the shape you want to make. The X values are predefined by the audiometric frequencies (125-20000 Hz). For each X value, you can enter 2 Y values. You can also set the shape outline and fill color.
In this example, a shape (zone) is created from 1000 to 4000 Hz.
The shape is filled with a transparent green colour and it has no outline.
Show Overlay
The overlays now appear in the drop-down menu in the Format window. Each user can select which overlay to show on the audiogram.
Depending on your selection, the overlay now appears on the audiogram:
