title: Automated electro-oculography.
abstract: Automation of the EOG has the chief advantage that the clinician is relieved of the normal complexities and the time demands of this test. He needs only to be concerned with the interpretation of the final outcome for diagnosis. The expense of this method, relative to the standard techniques, must be assessed according to the circumstances of the clinical setting. At present it certainly cannot be justified in the private clinical practice due to its low level of utilization. However, in a college or large clinic, where a general purpose minicomputer is available, automated control of the EOG test may be the most economical in terms of the additional expenditures required for equipment and manpower.
