Diagnosis & Evaluation
At Excell ENT Clinic, we use advanced vestibular testing to pinpoint the exact cause of dizziness and balance issues.
Key Diagnostic Procedures:
- Video Nystagmography (VNG) – Tests involuntary eye movements to assess inner ear function
- Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potential (VEMP) – Evaluates balance-related nerves
- Posturography – Analyzes body stability in different conditions
- Audiometry & Hearing Tests – Determines if vertigo is linked to hearing loss
- MRI & CT Scans – Used to rule out neurological causes like brain tumors or stroke
Accurate diagnosis leads to targeted treatment, ensuring long-term relief from vertigo and balance disorders.
