A test procedure which measures the amount of ocular counterrolling (OCR) of the eyes in response to lateral tilt of the body is considered a means of obtaining objective responses to stimulation of the otolithic receptors in the non-auditory labyrinth of the inner ear. OCR is thought to be the result of changing the orientation of the otolithic maculae relative to the gravitational vector. A special optical system (goniometer) has been devised which enables the observer to obtain a clear image of the subject's eye and to measure OCR responses in degrees and minutes of arc. Although attempts have been made elsewhere to evaluate the clinical significance of such responses, the results have been controversial, and clearly indicate the need for further study in order that OCR may be utilized as a reliable diagnostic tool. Accordingly, a review of the literature is presented, together with preliminary findings at St. Michael's Hospital and recommendations for further research.
一种测量眼睛眼动反旋(OCR)量以响应身体侧倾的测试程序,被认为是获得对内耳非听觉迷路中耳石感受器刺激的客观反应的一种手段。OCR被认为是耳石斑相对于重力矢量的方向改变的结果。已经设计了一种特殊的光学系统(测角仪),它使观察者能够获得受试者眼睛的清晰图像,并以度和分弧度来测量OCR反应。尽管在其他地方已经有人尝试评估这种反应的临床意义,但其结果一直存在争议,并且清楚地表明需要进一步研究,以便OCR能够用作可靠的诊断工具。因此,本文对相关文献进行了综述,并介绍了圣迈克尔医院的初步研究结果以及进一步研究的建议。
