This course takes a deep look into the vestibular system, which plays a key role in helping us maintain balance and stabilize our vision. Participants will explore the anatomy and physiology of this system, including how structures like the saccule, utricle, and semicircular canals function in detecting movements and communicating with the brain. Additionally, you'll learn to identify various types of nystagmus based on the affected semicircular canals, enhancing your understanding of vestibular disorders.
