Quantification of Vestibular Nystagmus by an Interactive Computer Program

Abstract
An interactive program for the analysis of nystagmus is presented, and some results obtained by processing postrotational responses are reported. The program is provided with a special subroutine which gives a quantification of the rhythm and regularity of the response through the histograms of the ratios between the duration of successive intersaccadic intervals and between the amplitudes of successive fast components. The consideration of these histograms has been proved to be highly significant in discriminating between normal and pathological responses.
