Vestibular function tests for vestibular migraine: clinical implication of video head impulse and caloric tests [PDF]
Vestibular migraine (VM) is one of the most common causes of episodic vertigo. We reviewed the results of multiple vestibular function tests in a cohort of VM patients who were diagnosed with VM according to the diagnostic criteria of the Barany Society ...

Morphological correlation between caloric tests and vestibular hydrops in Ménière's disease using intravenous Gd enhanced inner ear MRI. [PDF]
The purpose of this study was to prove the hypothesis that caloric response in Ménière's disease (MD) is reduced by hydropic expansion of the vestibular labyrinth, not by vestibular hypofunction, by evaluating the correlation morphologically using an ...

Caloric and video head impulse test dissociated results in dizzy patients
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 ...

Dissociation between Caloric and Video Head Impulse Tests in Dizziness Clinics
Vestibular assessment tests such as the video head impulse test (vHIT) for the horizontal semicircular canal, and caloric test (Cal), both evaluate horizontal canal function.

Clinical diagnoses of patients showing caloric inversion
Objectives: When air irrigation is used for caloric stimulation in patients with a perforated ear, warm irrigation may elicit a nystagmus that initially beats in the opposite direction of what is expected for warm irrigations, which is referred to as ...

Estimulação calórica a ar em mastoidectomias abertas unilaterais Air caloric test in canal wall down mastoidectomy [PDF]
Poucos trabalhos desde a década de 70 foram realizados a fim de elucidar a prova calórica em alterações da orelha média, apesar de inúmeras controvérsias que este exame pode trazer em estruturas anatômicas tão distintas.

Interpretation and use of caloric testing
Caloric testing is an otoneurologic evaluation of the status of the vestibular-ocular reflex; it allows an evaluation of each labyrinth separately. The main aspects on the use and interpretation of caloric testing are reviewed.A systematic review of papers published in the past one hundred years on caloric testing was undertaken. The inclusion criteria
