Dear Colleagues,
This Fifth International Master Class of the German Center for Vertigo and Balance Disorders and the European DIZZYNET on vestibular, ocular motor and balance disorders covers the whole field of peripheral, central and functional vestibular disorders. The basis for the diagnosis of vestibular syndromes is a profound understanding of the physiology and pathophysiology of the vestibular system and its examination. Therefore, on day one these topics and the most frequent peripheral, central and functional vestibular diseases are covered by plenary talks, also on the basis of their new classification by the Bárány Society.

On day two there are 90 min clinical hands-on courses in small groups on how to take patient history, to perform the bedside examination of the vestibular and ocular motor system and on how to use and apply important laboratory examinations such as the video-head impulse test, vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials or posturography. Further, practical courses on the treatment of BPPV and on vestibular rehabilitation are given.

We are very delighted to welcome three international speakers: Jeffrey Staab, Christian Chabbert and Dara Meldrum.

This Educational Master Class has two major aims: first, increasing knowledge and improving practical skills; second discussing and establishing international standards for the management of dizzy patients.
