| In the 1980s tests for cerebrospinal fluid protein, vestibular testing, and arteriography have been supplanted by modern audiometry with acoustic reflex testing, brain stem evoked responses, and computed tomography (CT). The various types of plain radiography are confirmed as an extremely useful screening modality. CT is insufficiently sensitive to serve as a primary screening procedure, but is a valuable confirmatory test | In the 1980s tests for cerebrospinal fluid protein, vestibular testing, and arteriography have been supplanted by modern audiometry with acoustic reflex testing, brain stem evoked responses, and computed tomography (CT).
