The aim of the study was to observe the usefulness of Betaserc in therapy of vestibular disorders in the patients with vertebro-basilar insufficiency. 80 patients (43 female, 37 male) were tested on the base of videonystagmography, stabilometry and brain stem auditory evoked potentials. Betaserc was ordered in two separate doses: 3x 8mg and 3x 16 […]
Advances in basic research in neurosciences and the introduction of new non-invasive techniques, that make possible the detection of weak signals of the brain, have revolutionized diagnosis and treatment. The most often used methods for functional imaging of the human brain are positron emission tomography (PET) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). More recently, a […]
Cortical activity has been analyzed on 238 patients consulting on vertigo and motion sickness, who were studied through Vestibular Cortical Evoked Potentials Mapping, Brain Mapping in rest state and Brain Mapping under 3D Virtual Reality Stimulation.
Myocardial infarction comprises gross necrosis of the myocardium, as a result of interruption of the blood supply to the area, as in coronary thrombosis. Myocardial infarction may occur when coronary vessels are narrowed or occlude, as the blood supply to the infarcted heart muscle is seriously impaired. Cardiovascular diseases are extremely wide spread and often […]
Concussion of the brain describes a violent jar or shock, or the condition which results from such an injury. Loss of consciousness obviously appears as the result of a blow to the head. In mild concussion there is transient loss of consciousness with possible impairment of the higher mental functions, such as retrograde amnesia and […]
The diagnosis of patients in modern neuro-otogical centres has to include not only history and examination, but also objetive and quantitative tests. In this study stress the importance of a short but significant Many authors had reported different usefull studies in the evaluation of the nystagmus which may be spontaneous and induce, any one of […]
INTRODUCTION: Our purpose of study is to verify the possibility of applying a diagnostic method for the evaluation of vestibular function using an “atraumatic” method of examination. We are currently using a computerized system that will objectively analyse the answer of the patients undergoing “virtual reality” stimuli in the absence of influence of external parameters. […]
