TY - JOUR PY - 2009// TI - A review of the otological aspects of whiplash injury JO - Journal of forensic and legal medicine A1 - Tranter, R. M. D. A1 - Graham, John R. SP - 53 EP - 55 VL - 16 IS - 2 N2 - Approximately 10% of patients who have suffered with whiplash injury will develop otological symptoms such as tinnitus, deafness and vertigo. Some of these are purely subjective symptoms; nevertheless, for the majority there are specific tests that can be undertaken. These tests can quantify the extent and severity of the symptoms as well as provide guidance as to the correct rehabilitation pathway. This article reviews the body of literature relating to the otological aspects of whiplash injury and gives an overview for medical and legal professionals.
