[Ocular fixation test in pendular vestibular stimulation. Hearing and balance laboratory (author's transl)]. 1977

M Toupet, and C Menguy, and M Teyssou

The effects of ocular fixation on per-rotatory nystagmus were studied during the course of the pendular vestibular stimulation test. If the subject is normal, or the disorder is peripheral, the nystagmus is abolished. Examples of these different results are presented.
