Photodynamic therapy‐induced precise attenuation of light‐targeted semicircular canals for treating intractable vertigo [PDF]
Vertigo is a common symptom of various diseases that affects a large number of people worldwide. Current leading treatments for intractable peripheral vertigo are to intratympanically inject ototoxic drugs such as gentamicin to attenuate the semicircular

An Electrokinetic Model of Transduction in the Semicircular Canal
Transduction in the semicircular canal was studied by focusing an infrared beam on either side of exposed ampullae from the posterior canals of Rana pipiens. The direction of fluid movement resulting from a stimulus was inferred by observing the polarity of the change in afferent impulse mean rate relative to the spontaneous value.

Evaluation of the vestibulo-ocular reflex in head-tilt mutant mice [PDF]
The vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) is an involuntary reflex essential for maintaining clear vision and balance during head movement. It stabilizes gaze by generating compensatory eye movements in the opposite direction to head movement, ensuring that the ...

Unilateral Triple Canal Repositioning Maneuver: Principles and Design [PDF]
Background: Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo is the most common cause of dizziness over the lifespan. Management is complicated by both a diagnostic burden (correctly interpreting specific ocular motor findings) and a therapeutic burden (selecting ...

An Uncommon Case of Bilateral Posterior and Superior Semicircular Canal Dehiscence Syndrome [PDF]
Semicircular Canal Dehiscences (SCD) are rare and involvement of Posterior Semicircular Canal (PSCC) and/or multiple dehiscences are even rarer. A dehiscence of any of the semicircular canals may produce various auditory or vestibular symptoms by ...

Auditory and Vestibular Assessment of Patients with Type Two Diabetes Mellitus: A Case-Control Study [PDF]
Introduction: Type two diabetes mellitus may relate to auditory and vestibular dysfunction. This relationship was frequently observed in elders. The present study aimed to evaluate the auditory and vestibular function of diabetic patients and compare the

The video Head Impulse Test (vHIT) detects vertical semicircular canal dysfunction. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The video head impulse test (vHIT) is a useful clinical tool to detect semicircular canal dysfunction. However vHIT has hitherto been limited to measurement of horizontal canals, while scleral search coils have been the only accepted method ...
