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

open access: yes, 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 ...

First Natural Endocranial Cast of a Fossil Snake (Cretaceous of Patagonia, Argentina) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In this study, we describe a natural endocranial cast included in a partially preserved medium‐sized skull of the Upper Cretaceous South American snake Dinilysia patagonica.

Development of semicircular canal occlusion

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
Surgical treatment of vertigo is performed with in-depth study of inner ear diseases. Achieving an effective control of vertigo symptoms while reducing damage to hearing and reducing surgical complications is the principle followed by scholars studying surgical modalities. Semicircular canal occlusion is aimed at treatment of partial peripheral vertigo

Spontaneous Jamming of Horizontal Semicircular Canal Combined with Canalolithiasis of Contralateral Posterior Semicircular Canal [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Audiology and Otology, 2022
Spontaneous canalith jam is an uncommon form of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo mimicking acute vestibular neuritis. We described for the first time a spontaneous horizontal semicircular canalith jam associated with a typical canalolithiasis involving contralateral posterior semicircular canal (PSC), illustrating how the latter condition modified ...

The endocranial morphology and inner ear of the abelisaurid theropod Aucasaurus garridoi [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A partial cranial endocast and right inner ear of the Cretaceous abelisaurid dinosaur Aucasaurus garridoi were digitally reconstructed from CT scans.

Functional implications of ubiquitous semicircular canal non-orthogonality in mammals.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The 'canonical model' of semicircular canal orientation in mammals assumes that 1) the three ipsilateral canals of an inner ear exist in orthogonal planes (i.e., orthogonality), 2) corresponding left and right canal pairs have equivalent angles (i.e ...

Measurement of Human Semicircular Canal Spatial Attitude

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2021
Located deep in the temporal bone, the semicircular canal is a subtle structure that requires a spatial coordinate system for measurement and observation.

Spatiotemporal symmetries in the disynaptic canal-neck projection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The vestibular system in almost all vertebrates, and in particular in humans, controls balance by employing a set of six semicircular canals, three in each inner ear, to detect angular accelerations of the head in three mutually orthogonal coordinate ...

Bilateral semicircular canal aplasia

open access: yesEuropean Annals of Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Diseases, 2013
Bilateral semicircular canal aplasia is extremely rare; discovery, when the cochlear-vestibular system is normal and there is no hearing loss, is serendipitous.Bilateral semicircular canal aplasia was serendipitously discovered in a 24-year-old male during assessment of unilateral mixed hearing loss with subnormal contralateral hearing.

Reduction of the vertical vestibular-ocular reflex in military aircraft pilots exposed to tactical, high-performance flight

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2023
BackgroundExposure to high-performance flight stresses the vestibular system and may lead to adaptive changes in the vestibular responses of pilots. We investigated the vestibular-ocular reflex of pilots with different histories of flight exposure both ...
