The Romberg Test assesses the function of the Dorsal Column Medial Lemniscal Pathway, the neural pathways by which sensory information from the peripheral nerves is transmitted to the cerebral cortex.

The Romberg test is a test of the body's sense of positioning (proprioception), which requires healthy functioning of the dorsal columns of the spinal cord. [1] The Romberg test is used to investigate the cause of loss of motor coordination (ataxia).

A Romberg test (also known as Romberg’s sign) is a simple physical test to see if you have balance problems that are related to proprioception — your body’s ability to sense your movements and position.
