Rotary chair testing is one among many tests of vestibular function. We've put this article together to give you a thorough idea of what it is, and how you can implement it in your vestibular test ba…
As the vestibular diagnostic world continues to expand beyond Videonystagmography (VNG) testing, new tests and features are becoming a necessity to comprehensively and holistically address dizziness…
The spontaneous nystagmus test forms part of the ocular motor sub-tests within the VNG test battery. There are three clear reasons for performing this test. The first is that a recorded spontaneous n…
Positional testing is all about maintaining a certain head position with respect to gravity. As it is the head position and not the movement that we are interested in, the movements to each position…
What is the spontaneous nystagmus test? The spontaneous nystagmus test determines if the patient has any nystagmus, with or without fixation, when sitting with head and eyes in a neutral position. Th…
What is the caloric test? The caloric test is a test of the lateral semicircular canals which identifies the degree to which the vestibular system is responsive and determines how symmetric the respo…
Standalone ESC vHIT includes a Spontaneous Nystagmus test where you can record eye movements before beginning your vHIT test protocols. Figure 1 - EyeSeeCam standalone default protocol If you purchas…
This a great question. You have several different types of ataxia and some of these have specific findings on oculomotor testing. Spinocerebellar Ataxia type 3, for instance, you have square wave jer…
