Congratulations, you are now the owner of a sophisticated new ICS Impulse system
developed in collaboration with Drs Ian Curthoys, Michael Halmagyi and others at the University of Sydney.
To assist you in getting the most out of your ICS Impulse system, we have included this training video.
We hope you find it easy to use and that the use of the incorporated tips and information result in improved data collection and accuracy.
A head impulse is a quick movement of the head which stimulates the semicircular canals.
The patient fixates on a dot during the head movement. The ICS Impulse goggles measure the head and eye movement.
The response is that both eyes turn to correct for, or compensate, for the head turn.
This compensation keeps the patient looking at the target as the head is turned.
