Abstract The Quix test, named for F. H. Quix, is useful test for determining vestibular lesions. We usually perform this test with the patient standing in front of a graph paper, feet slightly apart and arms outstretched with index fingers extended. The examiner marks the points touched by the tips of the index fingers. The patient is then requested to close his eyes for one minute, and the index fingers are observed for drift. We performed the Quix test, the stepping test and the gait test in 260 patients with vestibular and auditory disorders and the results were compared with the results of the caloric test. These three tests were considered to have similar validity as preliminary tests for determining the side of the vestibular lesion.
