A virtual-reality approach for the treatment of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo.
Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) is a common cause of dizziness caused by debris, which has collected within the semicircular canals of the inner ear. Stereoscopic representations of the human labyrinth are constructed and incorporated into a downloadable viewing platform to allow visualization of straightforward and complex variations of BPPV.
