Balance tests in Vashi, Navi Mumbai: Diagnosing Vertigo

Your exact experience and balance tests will vary based on your symptoms.
  • VNG-Video Nystagmography
  • Most widely used test used in vertigo and imbalance is VNG which measures eye movement to evaluate inner ear balance organs and to diagnose.
  • How VNG is performed
  • Specialised glasses are used to record eye movement.
  • You will be seated in a dark room in front of a TV screen.
  • A dot will appear and you have to follow the dots with your eyes.
  • Your vestibular specialist will move your head and will perform different positional tests to observe and record its effect on eye movement.
  • Water of different temperature may be poured in the ear to see the reaction and recorded.
  • Computerized Dynamic Posturography
  • Computerized Dynamic Posturography (CDP) evaluates balance by measuring body movements in response to sensory input.
  • During the test, you'll stand on a platform equipped with sensors. You will be asked to perform various tasks to assess your balance control.
  • Results help diagnose vestibular disorders and guide treatment strategies.
  • Video Head Impulse Test
  • The Video Head Impulse Test (vHIT) assesses the function of the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) by tracking eye movements in response to rapid head movements.
  • During the test, you'll wear goggles with built-in cameras while the examiner delivers quick head impulses.
  • This helps diagnose vestibular disorders like vestibular neuritis and aids in understanding how well your eyes can stabilize during head movements.
  • Electrocochleograpy ECochG)/cVEMP/oVEMP
  • Electrocochleography (ECochG), Cervical Vestibular-Evoked Myogenic Potentials (cVEMP), and Ocular Vestibular-Evoked Myogenic Potentials (oVEMP) are tests used to assess the electrical activity of the inner ear.
  • Electrodes are placed on the skin or inside the ear canal to measure responses to sound or neck/eye muscle stimulation.
  • These tests aid in diagnosing conditions like Meniere's disease by evaluating cochlear and vestibular function.

  • Clinical Tests for vertigo
  • Head impulse test
The Head Impulse Test evaluates the function of the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) by rapidly turning the patient’s head while they focus on a target. The examiner observes for any corrective eye movements, helping diagnose vestibular disorders such as vestibular neuritis or benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV).
  • Eye Movement Tests
Saccades/smooth pursuits/Optokinetic tests-nystagmus- These tests assess eye movements and coordination. Saccades measure rapid eye movements between fixed points, while Smooth Pursuits evaluate tracking of moving objects. Optokinetic tests stimulate nystagmus by presenting moving visual stimuli. These tests aid in diagnosing neurological disorders affecting eye movement control.
  • Rombergs tests
The Romberg’s test evaluates proprioception and balance control. Patients stand with feet together and eyes closed while the examiner observes for swaying or loss of balance. This test helps diagnose sensory ataxia or vestibular dysfunction by comparing balance with eyes open versus closed.
  • Dix hallpike Maneuvre
The Dix-Hallpike Maneuver assesses benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) by eliciting vertigo and nystagmus with specific head and body movements. The patient is quickly moved from a seated to a supine position, with the head turned to the side. The presence and direction of nystagmus indicate which ear is affected.
  • McClure Pagnini test
The McClure Pagnini Test evaluates vestibular function by assessing eye movements while the patient is rotated in a chair. The examiner observes for any nystagmus or dizziness during the rotation. This test aids in diagnosing vestibular disorders such as Meniere’s disease or vestibular migraine.

How Body Balance is maintained?

The eyes, sensory nerves, and inner ear all work together to create a secure sense of balance.
  • The eyes determine the body’s location and movement,
  • The nerves transmit messages about the body to the brain,
  • The inner ear detects gravity and motion.
  • Brain coordinates signals from all these

What Causes Vertigo?

One of the most common causes of dizziness and vertigo is an underlying inner ear problem.

With an inner ear disorder, the nerves send the brain conflicting signals that aren’t aligned with what the eyes and sensory nerves receive. The brain responds by attempting to sort out the inconsistencies, and the resulting effect is vertigo.
