Functional MRI of galvanic vestibular stimulation.
The cortical processing of vestibular information is not hierarchically organized as the processing of signals in the visual and auditory modalities. Anatomic and electrophysiological studies in the monkey revealed the existence of multiple interconnected areas in which vestibular signals converge with visual and/or somatosensory inputs. Although recent functional imaging studies using caloric ...
متن کاملModulation of Memory by Vestibular Lesions and Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation
For decades it has been speculated that there is a close association between the vestibular system and spatial memories constructed by areas of the brain such as the hippocampus. While many animal studies have been conducted which support this relationship, only in the last 10 years have detailed quantitative studies been carried out in patients with vestibular disorders. The majority of these ...
متن کاملEffects of Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation on Statokinesigrams of the Elderly
Special suits have been designed to simulate the physical functions of the elderly. However, it has been suggested that these suits do not simulate the postural instability that is actually observed in elderly subjects. We consider that postural instability in the elderly is caused by anomalous signals in the vestibules. In this study, we have verified this hypothesis by using galvanic vestibul...
متن کاملHabituation to Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation during Gait
Balance requires the integration of proprioceptive, visual, and vestibular sensory inputs. Contributions from the vestibular system are increasingly important when other sensory signals are lacking or erroneous [1]. Galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS), the application of a small electrical current across the mastoid processes, has been used to apply a stimulus to the vestibular system indepen...
متن کاملWhat Does Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation Actually Activate?
Luigi Galvani spent 20 years conducting experiments to demonstrate electrical conductivity of nerves and muscles before publishing his major treatise on the subject in 1791 (Galvani, 1791). His personal friend and professional nemesis Count Alessandro Volta held a respectful but opposing view, that nerve and muscle tissues simply serve as passive conductors, and he built the first “voltaic” bat...
