Abstract
A computerized electro-oculographic (CEOG) system comprises an integrated system for automated administration of electro-oculographic tests and visual evoked response tests to a patient, and automated processing of the results derived from such tests. The CEOG system is responsive to operator selection of desired stimuli to be administered, as well as to operator specification of various test stimuli characteristics, for automatically administering to the patient the test stimuli having the desired characteristics. Electrode test data derived therefrom are immediately recorded on-line, and are immediately and automatically analyzed to provide critical information for immediate display in acceptable format and in a very short period of time. The integrated CEOG system compensates for the "offset voltage" phenomenon typically encountered with respect to electrode test data by provision of both manual and automated compensating capabilities.
