Abstract

Here we review the clinical value of a video-oculography test for clinical evaluation of vestibular otolith function. This test is known as the video ocular counter roll (vOCR) and is based on measurement of torsional vestibulo-ocular reflex with a lateral head tilt. The vOCR test consists of a simple maneuver during which the head and torso are tilted en bloc by the examiner. The pattern of vOCR deficit among patients highlights its clinical value in identifying the stage of vestibular loss and recovery. The quick application of vOCR allows examination of otolith-ocular function and assessment of vestibular recovery at the bedside.
