Evaluation of vertigo will include:
Extensive medical history - taking with questions ,
Thorough physical exam, especially of the head and ear
● Audiological evaluation - An audiologist conducts a variety of hearing tests which help doctors to assess whether there is a problem with the nerve that connects the inner ear to the brain, and whether dysfunction affects both ears.
● Vestibular function tests - The doctor confirms the diagnosis by observing nystagmus — jerking of the person’s eyes that accompanies the vertigo caused by changing head position, over the edge of the examining table
● Video Nystagmography ( VNG ) - it is used to evaluate the function of the inner ear using a series of visual and sensory tests. While wearing the goggles, you are seated in front of a large television screen. A video camera with an infrared lens is built into the goggles and records your eye movements during the test. A variety of shapes, objects, and spots of light appear on the screen, and you are asked to perform certain tasks with your eyes while keeping your head still and recording of the response is done.
● Imaging - In some people with vertigo—in particular those who also have hearing loss—doctors may recommend an MRI / CT scan to obtain a closer look at the inner ear and surrounding structures.
