Sensitivity of caloric test and video head impulse as screening test for chronic vestibular complaints [PDF]
Clinics, 2017 OBJECTIVE: This study compared the results of the caloric test with those of the video head impulse test obtained during the same session and evaluated whether the former can be used to screen for non-acute vestibular dysfunction.

Caloric and video head impulse test dissociated results in dizzy patients
Frontiers in Neurology, 2022 IntroductionWe are now able to detect abnormalities for any semicircular canal with the use of the video head impulse test (vHIT). Prior to the vHIT, the gold standard for unilateral canal paresis of the lateral canal was considered the caloric test ...
