Neurootological Application of VEMP Recording During Infancy and Childhood

  • Chapter
Book cover Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potential

Abstract

Vestibular evoked myogenic potential (VEMP) recording is a new tool for exploring the pathways of the sacculus, inferior vestibular nerve, vestibular nucleus, and sternocleidomastoid muscles (SCMs) in pediatric otology and neurotology.
