This study details electronystagmography (ENG) tests, including saccade, gaze, and caloric, plus rotational testing and posturography. It emphasizes their diagnostic benefits and limitations for vestibular disorders.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Otolaryngology
  • Vestibular System Diagnostics

Background:

  • Vestibular disorders affect balance and spatial orientation.
  • Accurate diagnosis relies on comprehensive testing.
  • Electronystagmography (ENG) is a key diagnostic tool.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the standard electronystagmography (ENG) battery.
  • To outline rotational testing and dynamic posturography.
  • To emphasize interpretation, benefits, and limitations for diagnosis.

Main Methods:

  • Description of the basic ENG battery: saccade, gaze, position, caloric tests, and spontaneous nystagmus.
  • Inclusion of rotational testing and dynamic posturography.
  • Focus on the interpretative aspects of each test.
