Caloric testing is by far one of the most important tests of the vestibular battery. It allows us to identify the side of the lesion when it is peripheral; it is easy to administer and not difficult to interpret. But consistent results rely on a good preparation of the patient, of the test and on following a correct protocol. This will all be reviewed in the class. [more details]
