How is the cause of dizziness diagnosed?
The physician will combine a detailed case history with the information obtained from a hearing test performed in our office, as well as information obtained from tests specifically designed to diagnose the cause of dizziness. The two most common test to diagnose the cause of dizziness are Videonystagmography (VNG – or previously referred to as the ENG) and Electrocochleography (ECochG). Both tests are performed in our office by a trained technician and interpreted by a licensed Audiologist. The tests look at many aspects of the central and peripheral balance systems to diagnose the cause of dizziness.
