## tympanogram_blank.jpg

The image is a graph titled "Figure 10-6." It illustrates tympanograms, which are used in audiology to measure how well sound travels through the ear. The x-axis represents Air Pressure (daPa), ranging from -400 daPa on the left side of the graph to +200 daPa on the right side. The y-axis measures Admittance (mmhos) and ranges from 0 mmhos at the bottom to approximately 2.5 mmhos at the top.

The graph shows a typical tympanogram with three distinct regions:
1. **High Admittance Region**: This is seen in the upper left part of the graph, where there's an area above 1.5 mmhos.
2. **Low Admittance Region**: This region is located around -40 daPa and shows a dip below 0.5 mmhos.
3. **Middle Admittance Region**: The central part of the graph displays admittance values between approximately 0.5 to 1.5 mmhos.

The text at the bottom provides additional information about what tympanograms are used for, explaining that they measure how well sound travels through the ear using an admittance instrument and that the x-axis represents applied air pressure in decaPascals (daPa), with atmospheric pressure being represented by 0 daPa. The y-axis measures admittance in millimhos (mmhos).
