Equilibriometric tests

Since many years we are using the local positioning system of ultrasound computer cranio-corpo-graphy (US-COMP-CCG). The patient is carrying a helmet with 2 ultrasound markers and a shoulder fixation with 2 other ultrasound markers. A computer unit is triggering the ultrasound impulses. Backwardly and above the patient is the ultrsound receiver unit containing several ultrasound […]

Patients with definite multiple sclerosis frequently suffer from vestibular disorders due to a vestibulo-oculomotor and vestibulospinal systems involvement. The vestibulospinal reflexes in these subjects can be well investigated through the vestibular evoked myogenic potentials recording. These potentials, evoked by the acoustic stimulation of the saccular macula and mediated by vestibulocollic reflex pathway, are recorded using […]

Magnetic impulses play major role in today environment, so it is important to estimate their influence on the human body. From this point of view the problem of correct criteria is of special value. This considerations have provoked the study proposed. The item of the study has been to try recording the brain response to […]

An apoplectic stroke means sudden neurologic impairment due to a cerebrovascular disorder, limited by some to intracranial hemorrhage, extended by others to include occlusive cerebrovascular lesions. Cerebrovascular accidents may occur at any age, but intracerebral hemorrhage and thrombosis are rare before age 40 years. Peak incidence for cerebral thrombosis is at age 50 – 70 […]

Aim: comparative study in vestibular function in patients with vertigo using craneocorpography, computerized electronystagmograhy and ultrasonography doppler of head and neck at Mexico City, Germany and Argentina. Materials and Methods: one thousand three hundred fourty three patients in Mexico,City with vertigo using craneocorporgraphy and computerized electronystagmography and ultrasonography doppler of head and neck. Results: 45,07% […]

Many authors had reported different usefull studies in the evaluation of the nystagmus which may be spontaneous and induce, any one of these have been given to study the vestibular function through of vestibuloespinal, retinalocular, vestibuloocular systems in the Cranio-Corpo-Graphy (CCG) and the Computarized Electronystagmography (CNG). Upon researching 1340 patients suffering from we found that […]

Early vestibular evoked potentials were recorded with an extratympanic electrode. The recording principle was adding responses phase locked to a recording frequency. The recording frequency was empirically determined to match harmonically an individual response frequency and thus allowing averaging. This new technique was evaluated in benign paroxysmal positioning vertigo. Normal data were obtained from 12 […]

This paper describes, from a technologic and mathematical point of view, a systematic method for daily patient’s equilibrium evaluation during the clinical work.

A new version of craniocorpography (CCG), called computerized ultrasonographic CCG (Comp-USCCG), has been clinically applied for objective recording, documentation, and quantitative evaluation of abnormal psychomotor activity in psychiatric patients.

This study was conducted in an attempt to determine the efficacy of neurofeedback (NFB) in the treatment of patients suffering from vertigo or tinnitus. Results indicated that after NFB, power for delta and theta bands was reduced; however, an increase of power was noted for the alpha bands.
