Electronystagmography (E.N.G) Test in SHROBONEE- Digital Hearing Aid Center in West Bengal, India.

Image
            E.N.G. [Electronystagmography] with Caloric Electronystagmography  ( ENG )  is a diagnostic test to record involuntary movements of the eye caused by a condition known as  nystagmus . It can also be used to diagnose the cause of  vertigo ,  dizziness  or  balance  dysfunction by testing the  vestibular syste m The test is performed by attaching  electrodes   around the nose and measuring the movements of the eye in relation to the ground electrode. The vestibular system monitors the position and movements of the head to stabilize retinal images. This information is integrated with the visual system and spinal afferents in the brain stem to produce the   vestibulo-ocular reflex   (VOR). ENG provides an objective assessment of the oculomotor and vestibular systems. A newer standard for the recording is the use of infrared video systems which allow for a more detailed observati...

Electrocochleography(EcochG) Test done at SHROBONEE, West Bengal, India.

Image
                       EcochG Test at SHROBONEE   Electrocochleography  ( ECochG )   is a measure of the electrical potentials of the cochlea. Typically, the measurement is characterized by the stimulus onset (baseline), the response of the cochlea to the stimulus (summating potential - SP), and response to the synchronous firing of nerve fibers (action potential - AP) Electrocochleography  (abbreviated  ECochG  or  ECOG ) is a technique of recording  electrical potentials  generated in the  inner ear  and  auditory nerve  in response to sound stimulation, using an electrode placed in the ear canal or  tympanic membrane . The test is performed by an  otologist  or  audiologist  with specialized training, and is used for detection of elevated inner ear pressure ( endolymphatic hydrops ) or for the testing and monitoring of inner ear and...
