Cochlear BEDGy2.47 mean is relevant for hearing decline after SRS and more relevant as compared with BEDGy2.47 max. Three years after SRS, this was sustained for all hearing decline evaluation modalities. Our data suggest the BEDGy2.47 mean cut-off of ≤8 Gy2.47 for better hearing preservation rates.
