Course Title: Master Class on Diagnosing and Managing Central Vestibular Disorders

Date: 7-9 July 2023, 9 AM to 6 PM - Physical Mode

Location: Cyclops Medtech Corporate Office and Training Center, Bangalore, INDIA

Central vestibular disorders are pathologies which originate in the brain, brainstem and the central nervous system (CNS). In 10-12% of  dizzy patients, the root cause can be central. In many of the CVDs, the root cause can be catastrophic, hence a thorough differential diagnosis is necessary. Unlike peripheral lesions, nystagmus of central pathology changes direction with gaze, is unaffected by fixation, and may be purely vertical or torsional. Depending on the site of lesion there may be associated hearing loss as well as multiple other neurological symptoms. This course will equip you to confidently assess and manage patients with central vestibular disorders.
