Are their rules for diagnosing superior semi-circular canal dehiscence (SSCD) using cVEMP? Well there are certainly guidelines, as opposed to rules. Perhaps it would help if we refer to the pathophys…

This article introduces the dynamic visual acuity (DVA) test and its role in assessing vestibular compensation. Table of contents Visual acuity Pathophysiology of dynamic visual acuity Clinical appli…
The mono-thermal (“screening”) version of the caloric test refers to stimulating at one temperature on each ear. In many cases the results from two irrigations will be sufficient to inform the tester…
Firstly, it is important to remember that skew deviation is not only present in central disorders, you might find a very tiny skew deviation in vestibular neuritis also - particularly if you search f…

Most of you who do repositioning manoeuvres, you're always warned about this drop attack phenomena. If you're not familiar with it, I'll just explain it. So you're doing an Epley manoeuvre and when y…
If I have an OCR response above four degrees, does that mean that my patient has normal ocular function? Okay, thanks for that question. And what I did not really go into detail of the study that I m…
