Videonystagmography (VNG) or Electronystagmography (ENG) testing are performed to assess a patient with symptoms of dizziness, balance problems, or vertigo. Electronystagmography (ENG) and Videonystagmography (VNG) are methods of examining that portion of the inner ear (vestibular system) which governs the sense of balance or equilibrium. The difference between ENG and VNG lies in the manner in which eye movements are recorded and Dr. Anderson determines which method is best to use for each patient. To measure the movements of the patient’s eyes to detect nystagmus (rapid involuntary eye movements), electrodes are placed on the forehead and outer corners of the eyes for ENG and for VNG video goggles with infra red cameras are used. VNG or ENG is really a group of tests.  During testing, the patient sits in a comfortable chair and performs several visual tasks, is positioned into different body positions. The last test consists of stimulating the balance system by introducing a small amount of air into the ear.  The test takes approximately 1-1/2 hours.
