Abstract
In Magnetic Resonance Imaging scanner environments, the continuous Lorentz Force is a potent vestibular stimulation. It is nowadays so well known that it is now identified as Magnetic vestibular stimulation (MVS). Alongside MVS, some authors argue that through induced electric fields, electromagnetic induction could also trigger the vestibular system. Indeed, for decades, vestibular-specific electric stimulations (EVS) have been known to precisely impact all vestibular pathways. Here, we go through the literature, looking at potential time varying magnetic field induced vestibular outcomes in MRI settings and comparing them with EVS-known outcomes. To date, although theoretically induction could trigger vestibular responses the behavioral evidence remains poor. Finally, more vestibular-specific work is needed.
