==Differentiating BPPV from other Diseases==
BPPV must be differentiated from other [[Disease|diseases]] that cause [[vertigo]], [[nystagmus]], and [[Hearing impairment|hearing problems]], such as [[Vestibular neuronitis|vestibular neuritis]], [[Herpes simplex virus|HSV]] oticus, [[Ménière's disease|Meniere disease]], labyrinrhine [[concussion]], [[Perilymph fistula|perilymphatic fistula]], [[semicircular canal]] dehiscence syndrome, [[Vestibular system|vestibular]] paroxysmia, [[Cogan syndrome]], [[vestibular schwannoma]], [[otitis media]], [[aminoglycoside]] toxicity, recurrent vestibulopathy, vestibular [[migraine]], [[epileptic]] [[vertigo]], [[multiple sclerosis]], [[Brain tumor|brain tumors]], [[cerebellar infarction]]/[[hemorrhage]], [[brain stem]] [[ischemia]], [[Arnold-Chiari malformation|chiari malformation]], and [[Parkinson's disease|Parkinson]].


[Disease name] must be differentiated from [[differential dx1], [differential dx2], and [differential dx3].
===Differentiating BPPV from other diseases on the basis of vertigo, nystagmus, and hearing problems===


==Differentiating [Disease name] from other Diseases==
On the basis of [[Vertigo MRI|vertigo]], [[nystagmus]], and [[Hearing impairment|hearing problems]], BPPV must be differentiated from [[Vestibular neuronitis|vestibular neuritis]], [[Herpes simplex virus|HSV]] oticus, [[Ménière's disease|Meniere disease]], labyrinrhine [[concussion]], [[Perilymph fistula|perilymphatic fistula]], [[semicircular canal]] dehiscence syndrome, [[Vestibular system|vestibular]] paroxysmia, [[Cogan syndrome]], [[vestibular schwannoma]], [[otitis media]], [[aminoglycoside]] toxicity, recurrent vestibulopathy, vestibular [[migraine]], [[epileptic]] [[vertigo]], [[multiple sclerosis]], [[Brain tumor|brain tumors]], [[cerebellar infarction]]/[[hemorrhage]], [[brain stem]] [[ischemia]], [[Arnold-Chiari malformation|chiari malformation]], and [[Parkinson's disease|Parkinson]].
[Disease name] must be differentiated from other diseases that cause [clinical feature 1], [clinical feature 2], and [clinical feature 3], such as [differential dx1], [differential dx2], and [differential dx3].
 
OR
 
[Disease name] must be differentiated from [differential dx1], [differential dx2], and [differential dx3].
 
OR
 
As [disease name] manifests in a variety of clinical forms, differentiation must be established in accordance with the particular subtype. [Subtype name 1] must be differentiated from other diseases that cause [clinical feature 1], such as [differential dx1] and [differential dx2]. In contrast, [subtype name 2] must be differentiated from other diseases that cause [clinical feature 2], such as [differential dx3] and [differential dx4].
 
===Differentiating [disease name] from other diseases on the basis of [symptom 1], [symptom 2], and [symptom 3]===
 
On the basis [symptom 1], [symptom 2], and [symptom 3], [disease name] must be differentiated from [disease 1], [disease 2], [disease 3], [disease 4], [disease 5], and [disease 6].

Overview

BPPV must be differentiated from other diseases that cause vertigo, nystagmus, and hearing problems, such as vestibular neuritis, HSV oticus, Meniere disease, labyrinrhine concussion, perilymphatic fistula, semicircular canal dehiscence syndrome, vestibular paroxysmia, Cogan syndrome, vestibular schwannoma, otitis media, aminoglycoside toxicity, recurrent vestibulopathy, vestibular migraine, epileptic vertigo, multiple sclerosis, brain tumors, cerebellar infarction/hemorrhage, brain stem ischemia, chiari malformation, and Parkinson.

Differentiating BPPV from other Diseases

BPPV must be differentiated from other diseases that cause vertigo, nystagmus, and hearing problems, such as vestibular neuritis, HSV oticus, Meniere disease, labyrinrhine concussion, perilymphatic fistula, semicircular canal dehiscence syndrome, vestibular paroxysmia, Cogan syndrome, vestibular schwannoma, otitis media, aminoglycoside toxicity, recurrent vestibulopathy, vestibular migraine, epileptic vertigo, multiple sclerosis, brain tumors, cerebellar infarction/hemorrhage, brain stem ischemia, chiari malformation, and Parkinson.

Differentiating BPPV from other diseases on the basis of vertigo, nystagmus, and hearing problems

On the basis of vertigo, nystagmus, and hearing problems, BPPV must be differentiated from vestibular neuritis, HSV oticus, Meniere disease, labyrinrhine concussion, perilymphatic fistula, semicircular canal dehiscence syndrome, vestibular paroxysmia, Cogan syndrome, vestibular schwannoma, otitis media, aminoglycoside toxicity, recurrent vestibulopathy, vestibular migraine, epileptic vertigo, multiple sclerosis, brain tumors, cerebellar infarction/hemorrhage, brain stem ischemia, chiari malformation, and Parkinson.
