Interpretation and use of caloric testing

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology, 2008
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

Caloric and video head impulse test dissociated results in dizzy patients

open access: yesFrontiers 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 ...

Does the video head impulse test replace caloric testing in the assessment of patients with chronic dizziness? A systematic review and meta-analysis

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology, 2021
Introduction: Caloric testing is the most frequently used test to assess peripheral vestibular function since the beginning of the 20th century. However, the video head impulse test, vHIT, has gained prominence in the field of neurotology, as it is a ...

Morphological correlation between caloric tests and vestibular hydrops in Ménière's disease using intravenous Gd enhanced inner ear MRI. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
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 ...
