Videonystagmography (VNG)
Videonystagmography (VNG) is a sophisticated diagnostic tool used to evaluate the function of the inner ear and central nervous system by recording eye movements. This technology involves the use of infrared cameras to track eye movements as patients perform a series of visual tasks and positional maneuvers. By analyzing these eye movements, VNG can help identify abnormalities in the vestibular system, brainstem, and cortex that are responsible for a wide range of functions, including maintaining balance and spatial orientation. This non-invasive test is crucial in diagnosing conditions such as vertigo, dizziness, and balance disorders, providing valuable insights into the underlying causes of these symptoms.
We utilize VNG as a key component in our comprehensive assessment and treatment of patients with a variety of neurological conditions. By pinpointing specific dysfunctions within eye movements and the vestibular system, we can develop targeted rehabilitation plans that address the root causes of balance and dizziness issues, and much more.
