VNGs

Videonystagmography (VNG) is a diagnostic technology that uses infrared goggles to evaluate inner ear function and central motor coordination. It is primarily used to assess balance disorders and dizziness by tracking eye movements, which are closely linked to the function of the inner ear and brain. At Revere Health, our specialists use VNG testing to diagnose conditions affecting balance and vestibular function, helping to create targeted treatment plans.

How VNG Works
During the test, infrared goggles are placed over the patient’s eyes to track and record eye movements in response to various stimuli. The goggles capture detailed information about how the eyes move in response to positional changes or specific visual stimuli, which provides insights into the functioning of the inner ear and brain.

Conditions Diagnosed with VNG
Vertigo: Helps determine if dizziness is caused by issues within the inner ear (peripheral vertigo) or the brain (central vertigo).
Balance Disorders: Assesses the underlying causes of balance issues, often related to vestibular dysfunction.
Dizziness and Lightheadedness: Identifies the source of unexplained dizziness or lightheadedness, particularly when linked to inner ear problems.

Benefits of VNG
Accurate Diagnosis: Provides a detailed evaluation of vestibular and central motor functions, aiding in the diagnosis of balance disorders.
Non-Invasive: The test is safe and painless, requiring no incisions or invasive procedures.
Targeted Treatment: Results from VNG testing help guide appropriate treatments or therapies to address the underlying cause of balance or dizziness issues.
