Abstract
The purpose of our study was to determine the sensitivity of semicircular canal afferents to linear acceleration in intact animals prepared to preserve the physical integrity of the end organ and nerve. The responses of physiologically identified lateral and vertical canal afferents to static head tilts are described, and the implications of these findings, especially with regard to positional nystagmus, are discussed.
