[Radiothermography in the diagnosis of vestibular dysfunction of vascular etiology].
As many as 126 patients with vestibular disorders of vascular genesis were examined in the representative points by radiothermometry not used before. Patients with vestibular dysfunction that developed after the occurrence of the early forms of brain blood supply insufficiency manifested a statistically significant temperature decrease in the area of blood supply to the vertebrobasilar bed. In the group of patients with dyscirculatory encephalopathy, stage II and III, there was an appreciable reduction of the craniocerebral temperature in all the points under measurement. The data on temperature alterations were confirmed by other neurophysiological methods of diagnosis, which attests to the informative value of radiothermometry in the diagnosis of vascular and vestibular pathology. The simplicity and safety of the method make it particularly promising in the screenings of the population.
