Computerized analysis of established craniocorpography
This study reports 21 patients who suffered from vertigo and underwent a complete otorhinolaryngological evaluation and otoneurological tests to establish a peripheral labyrinthine disorder.

About balance on platform: mathematical modeling for clinical evaluation
This paper describes, from a technologic and mathematical point of view, a systematic method for daily patient’s equilibrium evaluation during the clinical work.
Computerized ultrasonographic craniocorpography and abnormal psychomotor activity in psychiatric patients
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.
Tetra-ataxiometry in falling elderly
TETRAATAXIOMETRY (BY TETRAX, ISRAEL) IS A THE LAST VERSION OF STATIC POSTUROGRAPHY ALLOWING SIMULTANEOUS RECORDING OF FORCES APPLIED AT RIGHT AND LEFT FOOT AND RIGHT AND LEFT TOES AND HEELS. IN THIS WAY IT IS POSSIBLE TO ASSESS BOTH GLOBAL BALANCE AND THE SPECIFIC COORDINATION OF RIGHT, LEFT, ANTERIOR AND POSTERIOR PARTS OF THE BODY […]
Treating cervical disorders according to mackenzie method in vertigo
One of the most important role of the vestibular system is to stabilize the head during the movement. This is necessary to stabilize the perceived visual images. Head is de-stabilized in every normal human situation, except to lying. Head is de-stabilized while sitting, standing, walking, jumping, eating In optimal conditions, the posture of the head […]
Navigation test
The balance system allows to our body to have a right relation with environment, this is probably due by different structures that collaborate to maintain the correct voluntary posture during erect position and the clear vision of the ambience; with regard to its synergetic purpose the balance system can therefore be schematised on the base […]
Stabilometria e patologia a.t.m.
Dai dati della Letteratura e dalle discussioni in merito alla relazione esistente tra apparato stomatognatico e postura, si può dedurre che una patologia a carico di una delle componenti del sistema stomatognatico può modificare l’equilibrio, influenzando le afferenze propriocettive degli altri distretti. I disordini cranio mandibolari possono causare disturbi funzionali della colonna cervicale. Durante la […]
The role of subcortical motor neurons in balance disorders- experimental study of the plasticity of the system
Several data indicate that compensation and habituation processes are the main phenomenons of the plasticity of central nervous system (CNS), especially the plasticity of vestibular system. The detailed role of particular parts of CNS in adapatation after lessions has not been clear yet (2). Evertbody knows that in birds and reptiles cerebral motor cortex in […]
Freyss’ stabilometry and posturography- a comparison study
The usefulness of conventional posturography when the changes of muscle tonus of the lower limbs affect position of the center of gravity which movement is measured is well known. The radius of the gravity center deflection such as length of the „way” and velocity of the movement can be calculated and compared during sequences with […]
Somatosensory potentials evaluation in cervical pathology
It seems to be very interesting to compare the results of the vestibular testing and the somatosensory evoked potentials (SEP) in cases with cervical diseases. This multimodal neurophysiological analysis of the patients suffering from cervical spondylosis before and after neurosurgical treatment is the first part of this long-term study.
