How to Perform
Strike a 512 Hz tuning fork and place its base on the midline of the skull — the vertex or the middle of the forehead (the upper central incisors may also be used). Ask the patient whether the sound is heard in the midline / equally in both ears or louder in one ear. Normally the sound is perceived centrally or equally in both ears; the test is abnormal when it lateralizes (is heard louder on one side).
