Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Vestibulopathy (VP) implies abnormality in the vestibular system, especially in the peripheral vestibular system. VP can be acute or chronic and unilateral or bilateral. Among VPs, there are difficulties in the treatment and care of patients with chronic bilateral VP. While the Barany Society has established the diagnostic criteria of bilateral vestibulopathy (BVP), there are many patients with bilateral vestibular dysfunction who do not meet the criteria of BVP. Coping with bilateral vestibulopathy is challenging. This Special Issue, “Vestibulopathies: Latest Research and Applications”, will focus on this timely subject and discuss its pathophysiology and treatment. I hope that many clinicians and scientists will be interested in this subject.
With best wishes,
Prof. Dr. Toshihisa Murofushi
Guest Editor
