Development of a dynamic virtual reality model of the inner ear sensory system as a learning and demonstrating tool [PDF]

, 2009
In order to keep track of the position and motion of our body in space, nature has given us a fascinating and very ingenious organ, the inner ear. Each inner ear includes five biological sensors - three angular and two linear accelerometers - which ...

Vestibular Endolymphatic Hydrops Visualized by Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Its Correlation With Vestibular Functional Test in Patients With Unilateral Meniere's Disease

Frontiers in Surgery, 2021
Background: Currently, 3 Tesla-MRI following intratympanic gadolinium injection has made it possible to assess the existence and the severity of hydrops in each compartment of the endolymphatic spaces in vivo. However, the relationship between vestibular

Turning semicircular canal function on its head: dinosaurs and a novel vestibular analysis. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Previous investigations have correlated vestibular function to locomotion in vertebrates by scaling semicircular duct radius of curvature to body mass. However, this method fails to discriminate bipedal from quadrupedal non-avian dinosaurs.
